THE RELAY RACES COMPARED
SACRAMENTO DID BETTER
THAN SAN FRANCISCO.
Under Worse Conditions the C.. C.
VS. Nearly Equaled the
Bay Citys' Time.

There was the liveliest kind of figur-
ing among sacramento Wheelmen yes
| terday when the Record Union'S' re-
port of the great around bay relay
race by San Francisco, Oakland and
San Jose teams was read According
to the Capital City Wheelmen. the race
proved the superiority of Sacramento's
riders, and the proof is certainly strong.
This is how the Sacramento men figure
it out.
The relay race between Sacramento
and Stockton teams was run between
the two cities on April oath, with three
clubs in the field The distance trav-
eled was 104A miles. The time made
was $4,000. The classic" relay race
at the bay was run on Sunday last in
4:05:13 around the Bay of San Fran
cisco, but 100 miles, and over fine, hard.
smooth roads, the best on the Pacific
Coast, large mileage being macadam
and rolled gravel, and most of it being
| daily sprinkled.
In the bay case there We're for each
club ten teams, each riding ten miles
or in all for each club there were ten
distinct riders. In the Sacramento
Stockton race there were but seven re-
lays, and as the course doubled on it.
self, five out of the seven men of each
club had to ride twice over his relay
once going out and once returning In
the bay case no man rode more than
one relay of ten miles. 1t is true, how
ever, that some of the Sacramento re-
lays were less than ten miles, while
some We're nearly ten, but none were
less than seven and half.
The difference between the time of
the bay and the Sacramento-S Stockton
race was, according to the official re-
ports, PAT. Now, the Sacra-
mento course was four and three quar-
ters miles longer than that around the
bay and over the worst kind of coun-
try roads, dusty, heavy, rutty and
coarse, and there must be. allowance
for the extra mileage Taking the best
relays ridden over the best sections of
the San Francisco course, and it is
found that five of them were passed
over in these times 26:23, 2S:41,
0:14I, 30:09 and 1927. 1t will
| be perfectly just, therefore, to al
low the Sacramento teams for their
excess of mileage half of the average
made by the best teams of the bay
clubs over their fine, smooth roads.
This will give the Sacramento team
4:30:00 for the excess of miles run.
Taking this from the 24:41, the differ
ence between the time Of the two races,
as worked out above and it will be seen
that the Sacramento team was only
10:11 slower over heavy, dusty, bad
roads, with five relays double ridden
If, therefore, the Sacramento men had
been pitted against the bay riders on
Sunday evenly they, on their good
roads, could have won the race hands
down since the difference of road and
double and single riding conditions is
easily equal to fifteen minutes and more
of time.
Do the valley sections produce better
athletes than the coast sections? 1t
seems so.

The Stockton-Sacrame Cycle
Relay Race Matter Settled.

The CAPITAL City Wheelmen, who for
the third time won the 1O0-mile relay
trophy, have surrendered it to the Ter
minal City Wheelmen of Stockton.
The protest and claim of the latter
club was filed at last evenings meeting
of the c. c. W., on the ground that the
message required by the rules to be
carried and passed from one relay rider
to another throughout the route was
lost, and was not carried by the riders
through two of the relays.
The Sacramento club won the race on
time handily. One of their riders, how
ever. had a fall and lost the packet.
1t was found and restored to another
rider on the return, and came duly to
the score. 1t was not, therefore, tech
nically carried throughout the whole
race by one of the chosen riders, though
in fact it was carried over all the course
except about six miles.
The Capital City Club last evening
maintained that they won the race,
since speed and coming in first We're
the essentials, and the message carry
ing but directory. But since the Ter
minal Citys claimed the cup on the
ground stated, the c. G. W., in fine
spirit, and rather than disrupt good
feeling, yielded gracefully and declined
to go into a long and costly contest to
try the case. The club has won the cup
in three successive years, but surren-
ders it for one year, and will next spring
take it back for keeps
committee was appointed to go to
Stockton on Saturday evening, carry
the cup, and deliver it at a meeting to
be held in Stockton that night, with all
due and friendly procedure. 1t was a
fine club spirit that prompted this ac-
ton, and while the racing section feel
that they won the race, as one of their
number by accident did lose the mes
sage, they yield gracefully and promise
next year to beat the Terminals SO badly
that they will mot be in it" at all. The
committee to go down to Stockton Sat
urday invites as many wheelmen as
can find it convenient to accompany
them.
A great deal had been said in the
Stockton papers about the Capital City
riders having been paced and even
pushed along, but the Terminal City
Club waived all such charges, as they
were absolutely baseless.
