We're back on the road...

...at the Priddis meeting spot, Wednesday, June 2nd, 6:30pm. As the first series gets closer to wrapping up, we'll go single and go hard this time. Road race (by categories) at 6:30 to see who can hang on, hold out, and bring it home. We'll meet at the Priddis meeting spot and utilize our Millarville course for the first time this year. The Priddis meeting spot is at the corner of highways 22 and 22X.

As for the course, we'll form up at the meeting spot and once started everyone heads south along 22 to the Millarville turnoff (549) where we go west until range road 33. North along Range Road 33 to Plummers road where we turn eastwards, drift north, and finally eastward again to 22 where we start another lap. The race will finish along Plummer's Road just before you get back to 22 the second time. Its a nice easy cool down ride back to the meeting spot. A's and B's will make two loops of the square, C's and novices will make one.

I need just a few volunteers for this one and it would be great if I had enough to run a novice group during the race. It's fun to watch these ones too as it's evolving craziness out there.

Should be fun.

How are the points calculated?

Good question. The basic format this year has been 15 for 1st, 12 for 2nd, 10 for 3rd, 9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1,1,1,1,1... and I give points for volunteering as well. I do adjust if someone races up a category on a particular night but I keep it pretty much straight forward and I think that this points system pretty much means that the series is won on the road and that's the goal.

Not to complain, but maybe you can re-run the numbers on the C's when you have some time to kill.

Good catch. I had you guys from last week as B's as Kailee had raced B the week previously but alas, you're right and once I consolodated the points, it should be right.

I'm bringing cowbells for the corner volunteers (to shake, not to wear...). See you tonight.
