At first glance, FinishLynx images can look strange. They are not normal photos.

A FinishLynx camera watches only the finish line and records a thin slice of that line over time. The final image is built by stacking those slices one after another.

• This picture shows when, not where. Riders appear at the instant their front wheel reaches the line.
• Horizontal movement equals time, so the gaps between riders are real time gaps.
• The pink line can be dragged to the front tire edge.
