Well, it doesn't, but at least you know what you're capable of and you didn't waste a good day. Sub 20 looks well within reach, and when you have a legitimate 19 to your name these little tribulations will be forgotten.
Also, yes, whoever grassed you up is probably a bit of a bell end if your parents were as innocent as you say, it's the kind of infraction (noob, not really doing any harm) where I'd usually go up to the rider afterwards and point out that somebody who is even more of a cunt than me could get them disqualified by reporting their actions to the organiser.
