Here’s
how the judging works. Each line judge is responsible for a portion of the obstacle. When the rider finishes his or her run,
the obstacle captain looks at each judge who in turn signal the captain with points deduction or if the obstacle was cleared
with a no faults signal. Mobile
judges follow each rider through the course and the captains give them the final tally for each obstacle.
Exiting
an obstacle isn’t easy either. Just a few inches between saddlebags and crash bars and the cones. It’s easy to
clip a cone and lose points.
The
Competition DISCLAIMER:
We will not impugn the integrity of the judging. Therefore since I was a judge I was unable to take photographs of the competition,
however I am posting photos of a previous competition. Photo credits to Sister Snips.
Judges
must be very diligent and watch their area like a hawk.
Of
the 112 riders in this year’s competition I only saw 3 bikes go down. All in all it was a great event. No one got hurt,
the food was good, an abundance of eye candy (scantly clad babes) were present and a terrific time was had by all. The
best yardstick to measure whether or not an event is noteworthy is to gaze toward the heavens. If you spot an airship . .
. the event is noteworthy.
