Road Supervisor had the placement of bike racks in such a manner that it was instrumental in keeping the
intersection of W Burnside & 5th Ave clear of pedestrians. We had no problems besides the very first float breaking down on the tracks. We were able to pass buses through while delaying only one train. A tow truck arrived and pulled the float out of the intersection.
Once again, what we were told at the Roll Call about bumping trains through the race and what the police said on the scene were completely opposite. Although this is not a timed event, there are very serious runners in this race. It would have been a riot scene trying to stop the wall to wall runners coming down the street. We started
bumping trains as soon as the walkers began approaching. I don't think bumping through a crowded race course is very wise or safe.
