The results for GII's Backyard Boogie will likely be delayed by a day or two.  The Chief Judge complained to me at the event about the generally poor quality of bib number pinning.  Having watched a few finish videos where the scoring was especially challenging, I have to agree with this assessment.  There were a lot of bibs that were unreadable even with the video frozen.

MABRA, let's try to get better at this basic part of bike racing.  For races that are not chip-timed, number placement is critical to getting results out quickly.

Here is an excellent page on the topic; it includes a short, very well done video to show you how to do the job correctly:


See you at the next one,
