June 10th - September 16th
June 10th - September 16th (every Thursday evening) from 18.00 - 21.00.
Format:
The League will be held on the 'Club Course'. Each round will consist of 4 laps. The course is the same as previous years with the exception of the new exit from Section 1. This was done to reduce interaction with other forest users.
The forest is busier than ever with other users and there are plenty of people using the roads and trails. Give them plenty of notice, be polite, and let the timers know if there have been any issues. Make sure you have your CI licence paid up - this is a requirement of participation.
You have to have registered for the league.
If you want to race, you have to have the registration complete on the Tuesday before the race. This gives us time to update the master file for the laptop, the handicaps and the start list.
Start-times:
We'll be using start times from the past few years to gauge when people should start. If you get a start-time that is either too easy or too hard, let me know. After a few rounds we'll have a better handle on who you should be starting with. The idea is to send you off with someone of a similar ability/fitness.
We will be keeping a full list of all participants for the purpose of contract tracing as per the requirements.
Duration and Awards:
We will host the first round on June 10th and the last round will be in mid-September. The 'season' will be split in two, Season 1: Rounds 1 - 7 and Season 2: Rounds 8 - 14. The final round will be the Club Champs. There will be awards / bragging rights for both 'Seasons' and prizes for the overall series. Your best 5 times will count towards the results for each Season and the best 10 times (regardless of season) will count towards the overall.
Season 1 / 2: Awards / bragging rights
Top five men, women and U18.
Overall Prizes
E-bikes are allowed. These will be in a separate category if there are enough of them.
