i still don't understand why the race was stopped for everyone because of a person not at a checkpoint. at least let everyone that payed finish the race. and showing up to a checkpoint only to find a scrap of paper that says "the race is over!" was pretty lame. I don't know if the course was meant to be ironic as the race was part of the introduction of two new track bikes, a road bike would have been the ride of choice. this prolly sounds more bitter than i actually am. The race was really fun.. while it lasted. this entry was awkwardly written.
