Reply to "Racing a certified course in reverse"

So, they're at year nine on the certification and I just became involved.....

However, the course is run completely on dirt forest roads. The certifications to date did not include any calibrated. For a lot of the course, there are few permanent fixtures off of which to make calibrated points. Historically, the RD had driven the course to place representative mile marks.

As we prepare to remeasure the course next summer, I am working with the RD to figure out where he would like points or king and queen of the mountain climbs, etc. It's not likely that any point would be an integer of an mile or kilometer, but we'll see what we can work out. My suspicion is that there are a lot more drain culverts under the roads than we imagine, and could be used as reference points.
