Once we closeout accepting team rosters we will get them entered and start loading in race results for series scoring after Franch Creek. As in the past it is our goal to have standings posted by the end of May. We can't load anything in until after all the team rosters have been entered.
Team Categories - We are changing it up for 2013. We will now have 2 categories, Open and Grassroots. Open teams are designed for Cat 1 and pro racers but are open to any racer. We will have 2 points tables Cat1/Pro and Cat 2/Cat 3. There is no limit on the number of riders on an Open team but only the top 10 points-earners at each race will be scored. Grassroots teams may not have any Pro or Cat 1 racers. There will be one points table and there will be no limit on the number of racers on a team but only the top 10 points-earners at a race will be scored. We will have the same 2 categories for endurance races and the same rules apply.
