Perhaps they were thirsty and stopped at al local pub? Training? Other racers? He let them race really hard (100% fitness and one 85%) but with a difference of 15 - 16 minutes that is really much. There will be certainly a reason, but I'm affraid it is a sportive reason.

Well, not all your cyclists ended up 20 minutes behind, just the one who fell 2 times. So I think the result is correct.

but the only one that finished less then 15 minutes behind was my worst cyclist, so definitely it is not normal. probably they fall asleep during the race lol. can you check this please?

His time seems correct. But the one with 20+ minutes behind had 2 falls, and that is deadly in a race, even for a good cyclist. Especially when the fall occurs on a hill or mountain.

but the strange thing is not him, is that the other 3 were 15 and 16 minutes behind.

in the eneco tour a normal cyclist was only 5 seconds behinhd him, and one week later with better cyclist they lost all that time in a single race.

Don't forget... there was the case of tribvno's leader that had a habit of stopping for a wank in the middle of a race...
