Abstract

A gate assembly for a bicycle race start includes a plurality of gates, each mounted in a separate start position along a bar to move between a closed position and an open position. The bar is moveable between a first condition and a second condition. The assembly includes buttresses, each coupled to the bar to move between first positions and second positions in response to movement of the bar between the first condition and the second condition, wherein each buttress corresponds to a respective one of the gates. In the first condition of the bar, each buttress disables movement of the respective gate from the closed position to the open position. In the second condition of the bar, each buttress enables movement of the respective gate from the closed position to the open position.
