Having messed around with scanning barcodes this week, I regret to inform you that I have been messing around with generating them as well.

I've been thinking about creating finish tokens on-the-fly for when big events I support run out of finish tokens (which they do) for a while now. I finally got the time to build this.

Riding into driving rain on Sunday and Monday did have me thinking less about the ride and more about *why* I am riding. About little kids like Harry <https://greatcyclechallenge.com.au/about/the-kids/meet-harry> and his family.
