Kingston

Try this link:

http://www.ottawabicycleclub.ca/cyclocross

Can anyone actually find any information on that site? I can't. There is a list of start times, but then it says that for the Kingston race they may be different.

Exactly. There's nothing useful there for non-Eastern series riders.

Perhaps it is an Eastern Conspiracy to keep us southerners out of contention.

Okay, try this link:

http://homepage.mac.com/iausten/Eastern%20Ontario%20Cyclocross%20Series%...

I got it by clicking on the cached page stored by Google for cyclocross.org

Since the navigation on the page works, I suspect there's a problem with either the domain registration or DNS entry for cyclocross.org

The link we use is www.cyclocross.org and there isn't anything specific posted about the Kingston race yet. If I were to venture an educated guess, beginner men, master & beginner women, U15 men & women, Master B, C, & D (or M2 & M3) will be in the first race. In the second race will be Elite men & women, Master A (or M1), junior men, and U17 men. Finally, because the organizers drive down from Ottawa the morning of, start times are pushed back from the usual 9:30 & 11:00 to likely 10:30 & 12:00 but please check the website for confirmation (it'll be posted eventually). Registration for both races usually closes 30 minutes before the start of the first race so at this point, don't plan on showing up after 10:00 if you're in the second race & need to register. Hopefully specific Kingston clarification will be out soon.

Thank you! That's the sort of info I expected to have in a flyer, as without it one might assume that the start times were per the regular eastern series guidelines, or worse yet someone might show up for their usual Southern Ontario time.

The registration was on cyclocross.org. Our plan was to keep the usual start times. But, upon reflection, we will do as Simon suggested in his earlier post and delay the two starts to 10:30 am and noon. Registration will be from 7:30 am until 10:00 am for both races. Registration information and the details of who races in which race are on the eastern series website. Please note that because of the large number of riders from Quebec in our series, masters race using UCI age-based categories. If you still can't find all you need on cyclocross.org, please e-mail me: iausten@mac.com Ian Austen

It has pissed rain all evening, it's pissing rain now, and it's raining all Saturday. Exellent.

Excellent, any mud will be tacky by morning and there are no low spots to worry about mud bogs. Are you going to come out and race enduramil? 1st or 2nd race?

2nd race this year. 5th race ever.
