Super Duper race 23/10/11

SUMBC held a 'Super Duper' race this weekend. Something we do each year at least once, and we usually get a good turnout, this year was no exception, with 14 riders showing up. The timing system is always interesting, in the past we've used everything from stop watches and walkie-talkies, to actual light-gate systems. For this year's race, our esteemed president wrote us our very own, bespoke, application for android phones, which worked well, mostly.

A note on timings; unfortunately the gaps in the table are more likely to indicate an unrecorded time, rather than the rider not doing their run! Secondly, accuracy is still down to people pushing buttons for start and stop, so we might be a couple of tenths out in places, the hundredths should probably be ignored altogether.

It seemed that everyone had a good time, although no-one was taking it too seriously, it's always good to see where you sit amongst your mates 'officially'! Hopefully we'll run a few more of these if people are interested enough, as there were a few noteworthy absences (injuries, etc), and as an excuse to get Rob to polish his app a little more!
