I will offer to run this one. Race format to be finalised but will probably be a quick dash around the upper circuit and a longer race (90-120 minutes) round the whole track. As ever, offers of help with bell ringing, flag waving and loud shouting will be most welcome.

A slightly shorter distance on the longer track would be appreciated - 2 hrs going up that hill will not be fun...

Results: http://www.bhpc.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/Events/2023/11/
Finish times in the 15min slow race were mostly reconstructed from video, due to CrossMgrImpinj picking the worst moment to start sulking. I have my suspicions as to why, but it's going to take some work to reproduce. Lesson learned: It's best if whoever's doing the bell/flag stands directly opposite the camera (ie. near the aerial on the far side of the track from the timing tent). Not only does it prevent us capturing high-framerate footage of someone's leg instead of the riders, it also means the bell and flag are in shot, so it's clear from the video whether they're being waved. (For anyone wondering what happened to the ranking of the live results of the 90 minute race, that seems to be what happens when you sort by average speed and there's no track distance set. A warning dialog has been added to my to-do list.) *thunk* zZzZ

@kim - not a big thing but wondered if my TT time score was my first attempt when I came off or my re-run on stopwatch? To be fair my re-run wasn't amazing as I'd lost my confidence on that last corner and over ran onto grass but stayed on.

Yeah, it's fudged to use the time from the stopwatch. You can tell by the way it's got "From stopwatch" written on it in the race chart details. (I accept that it's probably only the time team who ever look at this.)
Hope the road rash isn't too bad! (In other news, I've modified CrossMgr to moan if you leave the Categories tab with the lap distance unset, and got to the bottom of the Impinj issue that caused us to lose tag reads at the end of the first race. The details of which are far too tedious to go into, but measures have been taken to prevent a re-occurrence.)
