OK, major update tonight. It's only one page, but it's a goodun. Hell it's so good it deserves its own new thread to get your attention I'm afraid!

Using myself as part of the example, as me and this guy have been trading blows in the results sheets for a couple of years now!:
http://www.rootsandrain.co.uk/compare.html?i=154x148

At the moment it's limited to a maximum of 3 riders, until I figure out how to optimise the code a bit. Two is blindingly quick, three riders takes a second or two, four riders brings the server to its knees for about half a minute!

Anyway, I think it's pretty bitching, and to say it's going to be popular, would be a mild understatement I think!

Happy playin'.

That is pretty cool!

I agree with you, that will be popular...

I love the Rider Nemeses!!!!
That is really great.
Best of luck with the project

So when can we start betting on races?

That's a pretty nice system you got there seb! I can appreciate the time it took to develop that into what it is now.

One suggestion I would say is to have a downloadable Excel / PDF file where event guys can fill in for you to submit. Setting up a public google excel sheet for example for data entry (or via a forum based doc) would make it even easier. If you come up with a standard for data entry and everyone is willing to adhere to it that would make things arguably easier down the road for expansion, growth, and integration.

Yeah, not necessarily a bad idea JV, and something i've already pencilled in as a possible!

I'd like to bring world cup results into this site. Does anyone know who at UCI I should speak to, anyone got a name/email that I'd be best off contacting? PM me. Cheers!

Have you though of some form/input form so non uk/wc riders can use it too. It is quite awesome but I'm not ready to move to the uk for it

I have, but it's a fairly long way down my to-do list. The admin area, especially the rider amalgamation/splitting process is something that I'm a dab hand at now, but would need considerable work to improve it before I could be happy releasing it for others to use without everything ending up a bit of a mess - the beauty of coding something for yourself rather than for other people!

Have added graphs to all of the riders and comparison pages.

A few of you will have read about this girl on Dirt recently, she'll be the next rach atherton imo:

At the age of 16 she's consistently within 20% of the winning elite men's time - has a bright future for sure.

Or here's me against a couple of the guys I hang with at races:

I like it. A lot. Sent you a PM.

The MSC series should strongly consider this awesomeness...
