Div 1 Madison • Round 5 Combines Note: Point scoring rounds are in Blue. Explain these races Win’N’ Out This is the opposite of a Miss’N’Out race. After a designated number of laps a whistle is blown for the first sprint. The winner of the first sprint is deemed the winner of the race and allowed to carefully withdraw from the race. Each proceeding lap sprint will produce the consecutive places from 2nd to 4th. Tip if you go for a sprint make sure you win it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=28iqHThZspM&feature=channel Paced Scratch race - The pace in this race is set by a Div 1 rider. The bunch follows the leader for ??laps until, with 5 laps remaining the div 1 rider takes off leaving the bunch to sought out the winner in scratch race style finish. Madison- A high speed, two person continuous race relay. Think of tag team wrestling meets track cycling - while one partner is racing the other is resting at the top of the track. This race is named after Madison Square Garden in New York where the event was first held. Two man teams contest the event, which is typically an endurance event. Only one rider from each team is allowed in the race at a given time, meaning that teams must take it in turn each lap (or more) to have a rider in the race. Changeovers are quite dangerous, but impressive to watch when done well - one rider circles around waiting for his teammate, who joins hands and imparts his momentum to the slower rider. At RAW Track we usually ride this on a scratch race format reference www.cyclingnews.com http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7XZ4_QbZJks&feature=channel Points are double! • This week is the second week were result points are double • For every week you attend you receive 10 points (as per normal) • In rounds 3,and 4 top four place getters receive 10,6,4 and 2points respectively Point Score info Last week’s top scorers • Div 1 Jake Waller and Tirian McManus 26 points • Div 2 Gay Mandy 30 points • Div 3 Noel Gorrell and Lizane Willmot 26 points • Div 4 Ben Hill 24 points • Div 5 Johnathon Huggets and Ben Thomson 24 points (http://www.rawtrack.com.au/TWE.jpg) series • Div 1 Tirian McManus 165 points • Div 2 Gary Mandy 174 points • Div 3 Troy Fisher 145 points • Div 4 Ian Grant 153 points • Div 5 Maximilian Santos 147 points Teams/Clubs Challenge (http://sy13.conquercancer.org.au/images/content/pagebuilder/Hillbrick_BICYCLES.jpg) 1 Dulwich Hill 3282 2 Lidcombe 2269 3 Illawarra 1249 4 St George 1186 5 Hunter Districts 850 6 SUVelo 748 7 Parramatta 742 8 Bicisport 724 9 Northern Sydney 695 10 Southern Cross 634 A message from LACC to DHBC.
