I think they just draw names out of a hat sometimes.

Good luck in B. :-)

Doesn't make sense, look where they put you in Ken Dinnerval

I've also noticed - no women in the long course, all in D and E grades and the short course - some dubious grading I can see.

I noticed that too Amy. It's like they wanted the women's points series allocation in the 84km race.

bang on.

If there is prizemoney for 1st female then put them all together in one race - makes sense.

Ashlee Akinoff was graded with James F and John N in Coota - yet D grade here.

Maybe she replaced you and Mark in D :-)

Grades have been revised - handicappers are on drugs as Bernard is now on Scratch - for the 84km race.

This is bit of a joke.

Mark and Simon appear to be on the same handicap I was on at Ken Dinnerval. Why the sudden change?

At least James bargained us down, not up!

Well that was a bit of an experience. I never thought I'd ride further with the block bunch than with the limit bunch.

Please tell me James and Amy did the double like they did at Dinnerville!
