I can't see how he broke that quoted rule? And if seems even if he did arrive too late they'd just delay him and put him off even later is all. But he didn't delay anyone and didn't miss his start.

Concerning the rule quoted above, He did not arrive 3 minutes before his start time and he was allowed to start because his start did not interfere with the riders starting on schedule. The finish official was upset for some reason other than a rule violation. The man appears to be insane. Your comments are rude and useless.

Is that official your daddy or something? Your ass is way too red over it. Stay classy.

This is the same guy that threatened to pull my license in Angelfire because I (along with all the other junior pros) didn't know that a $250 UCI license was required to race Pro GRT's. If they would've told me in advance or enforced it in the first race of the series I'd understand but yelling at me for your mistake, not ok. Then at nationals threatened to DQ me during Dual Slalom practice when I was trying to set my front tire in the right spot on the gate. Then threatened to DQ and fine me during Enduro for...

High five to the real winner! He was fastest down the hill. Simple as that. Nice run dude!

Did usac ever state what rule was broken to justify the dq? That is no way for an official to treat a paying customer. Very poor example for usa cycling. I am glad they really are out of mtb racing on the east coast.

He was probably late because the line to the porta-potty he was in was longer than expected. You know, since you can't just piss in the woods without getting fined.

I would expect a warning or reprimand from someone at the start hut. If there was a problem, they apparently got over it and let him take his run. Why does the guy at the bottom have to nearly come unglued? You put up good money to race at National Champs and shouldn't have to walk on egg shells everywhere and get treated like this. Imagine the roller coaster Finn Jr. just went on; he has an awesome run, (unofficially) wins, then immediately chewed out by an official...and DQ'd. Unreal. I'd be pretty sour on paying another dime to USAC.

BIZUTCH I don't care how old my son is I will have his back or anyone elses back when they are screwed over. Sorry if you don't like the fact I'm a MOM and post on mtb sites. Last time I checked I have EVERY RIGHT to post here as you do! Trust me my son can wipe his own a** and fight his own battles. Yes, you are right racers should be at the start gate on time. After the lift up the mountain he cut it close.There is a reason why a grace period is granted ... shit...

It does strike me that there is a relationship between them. I can't imagine he's talking to a complete stranger? Nonetheless. It was a great run and very disappointing he was DQ'd for something that was in some ways beyond his control. He was as the start on time, whether the rules state that he was meant to be there significantly before his start time is a different matter. Yelling is of course unnecessary. I know a lot of these folks are volunteers and even if they're paid I doubt the officials are getting rich. But the USAC seems to...

any longer term feedback on this yet? (well couple weeks) I've been seeing this and similar products for over a year and it looks interesting, though I can imagine it will not be perfect. But pretty cool it's now been picked up by a big company and available on the retail market nationally. It'd be great perhaps to see see this one day built into the manufacture of bikes and parts themselves.

The USAC/UCI should change this rule immediately. I've mentioned this to pro riders before and they had no idea about it. A top XC rider told me he specifically has not applied for a pro license because of this rule. It's ridiculous, especially for marathon events as the UCAC only has sanctioned 5 events for 2013! And not a single one of them them is located east of the Mississippi! Not only that, but I've heard that the USAC will consider 'other' events when you apply for a pro licence as a marathon mountain biker. It makes no sense at...
