Only in America!

Velonews today ran a story about a timing confusion at the Tour of the Gila. I have myself done a little racing in America, and never have I come across a less efficient bunch of officials. Only in America could the officials argue back and forth between timing issues which would never have been issues in the first place. Laden with their white and black striped prison suits, the US cycling officials, rarely seem to know much about cycling in the first place, and despite having a vast array of technology for timing and finish line results, somehow manage to mess it up.
