Bikes. Just in case you couldn't guess
Feb. 25th, 2012 10:22 pmI am tired. I could talk about water bottles and casks and ice, or the things I didn't do that I usually do, or that I did do that I usually don't, but I'm too tired.
So instead you get some photos of the B-Grade Miss'N'Out race. Two things about this race.
The last rider (or last 3 in the case of a large field) at the end of each lap is eliminated, until there's just three left.
Also it's one of the last races of the day, after the slow race and the slalom race and sprints and the biathlon and the various championships and possibly some others I've forgotten, and it was hot. More than a couple of medal winners had limped up to their place on the podium or grimaced as they stepped up.
The A-Grade Race had less than 12 starters (there were some scratchings). This race had 24 starters at this point.
( More interesting bit )
