  Try college and/or high school track and cross country coaches,
  running shops that sponsor races, TAC or whoever, the highway
  patrol, highway department.

  Also, you can get the bike mileage meter at any bike shop in the
  world.  They have s a certain acccuracy problem though, depending
  on where on the wheel you put the meter-reader.  If you're laying
  out a race for certification, bet the wheel-thingy you puch.

  Also, try a surveyer.  they have some of that stuff.

  Good luch,
  Jay
