As indicated, there were not enough competitors in
Category B, so it was not filled. However, since a
small number of women were spread between Categories B and C,
they were grouped together as a separate category in the Time
Trial and Hill Climb events.
The Friends are delighted that
twenty-seven (27) riders participated in this first Wallace Omnium.
Thank you to all those who rode and to all those who volunteered
their time to make this event a success!
