With MTB racing these days, are there any rules about what sort of bike you have to ride? Apart from the rocky section yesterday, I would've thought it would've been quicker if you went the Johnny T route with drops on a cross type bike.

The handlebars extensions of a triathlon or time trial type are forbidden, but traditional
barends are authorized.
