They show a 10 minute gap in his class?! Maybe a mistake.

anyway, I had a great time just spectating. I pre-rode part of the course,(as much as I could) on saturday>

There were many many DNFs. Had to be the heat.
Thank you very much Yeah, on the results on bikereg.com, they show a certain number of starters but then the places are significantly lower (~10-20). I'm glad most of the races finished just before the heat of the day. I'm also VERY please that it seemed like most of the course was shaded. In the NJ state RR a few weekends ago it was aweful. The women's 4 race started at 12:15 in the afternoon! The temp was 92-94 degrees. The entire course was on open roads with no shade with the exception of about 1/2 mile. 38 miles baking in the sun over 90 degrees. NOT happy about that.
