Reply to "Measuring State HS Course"

I had never intended to officially certify the CT championship course - too hard to document all the turn points, etc. Just wanted to measure it to "certifiable standards" which is what we did - calibrated on a grass cal course, 2 rides of the course, noted all the mile & km splits, adjusted start and finish (BTW, when measuring from the "break point" at the first 500m of the course to either end of the start line, we found the difference to be 0.07m, not the several meters some coaches claimed).
It is up to the race organizers to make sure the course is laid out correctly on meet day. But at least they now have the marks to do so on a consistent basis.
