​Wednesday night's DFL Cross Dress Cyclocross event -- in which some 300 athletes, many of them in drag, mounted their cycles for a clandestine race -- broke up about 15 minutes before the finish when an San Francisco park ranger pulled up and began hollering for racers to get off their bikes.

Hardly anybody dismounted -- park rangers aren't real cops, after all -- but racers relayed yells of "race over! Race over!" until most everyone dispersed.
