Could this be an end to those result hick-ups?!;
From Londonxleague.net
The Archer RC cyclo cross race on, Sunday, 25 October at Hillingdon Cycle Circuit will utilise transponders for the first time in the UK for a cyclo cross race as far is known.
This will provide a tremendous technical back up to the normal judging panel at the sixth round of the London/SE Cyclo Cross League says Andrew Postings, the organiser. With a likely field of over 80 riders with very mixed abilities from novice to expert it is likely that riders may be lappped by the winner up to three or four times. In fact last year only one rider was not lapped. The transponders show each time a rider crosses the line.
As the transponders cost £85 each, BC members will have to leave their licence and non-members something of value as a deposit to guarantee their return. All types of bicycles can be used and mountain bikers are especially welcome.
