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 first 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 2 points respectively Point Score info Last week’s top scorers • Div 1 Tom Cornish + Zac Marshall 17 points • Div 2 Gav White + Gary Mandy 18 points • Div 3 John Caley + Selina Ho 16 points • Div 4 Tom Yallouris 20 points • Div 5 Geordie Spenceley 18 points (http://www.rawtrack.com.au/TWE.jpg) series • Div 1 Tom Cornish 172 points • Div 2 Gary Mandy 154vpoints (new leader) • Div 3 Ian Grant 152 points • Div 4 Nigel Apps + Sandro Nava 150 points • Div 5Georgia Bonora 128 points Teams/Clubs Challenge After week 10 1 Dulwich Hill 1675 2 St George 1602 3 ATTA-NSW 1355 4 Randwick 1007 5 Illawarra 856 6 Lidcombe 843 7 Penrith 673 8 Hunter Dist 605 9 Bicisport 531 10 Sutherland 496 11 Central Coast 433 12 Canberra 371 13 Southern X 328 14 Bathurst 295 15 Northern Sydney 234 16 Vikings 229 17 Bankstown 202 18 MacArthur 184 19 Rapha 140 20 Eastern Sub 131 21 Park-Life 131 22 ANU 118 23 Peloton Sports 116 24 Waratah Masters 98 25 Parramatta 65 26 Tamworht 62 27 Muswellbrook 45 28 Manly 42 29 Manning Valey 36 30 WAGGA 34 31 WA 33 32 Goulburn 20 33 Marconi 20 34 All other Clubs 0 Some big Battles are brewing in the TWE series Div 1 • Tom Cornish will win Div2 • The Silver fox STILL leads the Bald Badger by 1 point Div 3 • Ian Grant Should win Div 4 • New leader Nigel Apps is now equal with Sandy Div 5 • Bonora Watch • Swap fest: Georgia Bonora leads her brother by 1 point • Mum must be losing it RAW TRACK 2017 ….Bring It! |
