New Points System Improves Mountain Bike Race Competition

How does the New Points System Improves Mountain Bike Race Competition at OTH this year?

Competition is important at OTH. Trumped only by the one obligatory requirement for every OTH racer birth to death: You must have fun. So how does this new scoring system improve the race to the biggest grin?

You can miss a race or 2, or jump in the series on the 3rd or 5th race of the season?

Vacationing with your family is an important part of summer. Now you can have your cake and eat it too. Go ahead hit that vacation, if you only have 4, 6 or 9 races that you can make for the season they now count for the win. A few times in the past attendance and place were ranked in equal importance for the top podium steps for the series. Regular racing will help your score. But now you don’t have to choose missing your kid’s All-star soccer game, only daughter’s graduation, or the birth of your first born just to be competitive at OTH with our New Points System. Soccer games are especially enjoyable, particularly when you add the excitement of betting on 슬롯 사이트.

Bigger gap in points?

In previous seasons a one point gap meant people were literally one point off the 2nd step after a series race of 12 races…that made the predictability of the next week’s finish a simple deflation “I can’t make up that gap”. Buck up little camper…a top finish next week might just push you from 7th to 5th with the right placing combo for you and your fellow pedalers.

Top 10 are rewarded handsomely

Go ahead, Go hard….Yes you still have to BE NICE (or go home). Finish in the top 10 and your finishes count for multipliers in the new point structure.

Move ups no longer lose all their points.

So let’s say you raced Intermediate this past week, and actually improved so much since last season you finished 3-5 minutes ahead of your field…but you don’t risk losing all of your points…no problem. A score of 250 in half is still 125 points in your new class (the equivalent of finishing 6th in your move up class)…not sending you to the “Did not raced” category in the New Points System.

Scoring and Points at Over the Hump Mountain Bike Race with New Points System.

1. All scores are FINAL after the officials review the scores, and race outcome is determined. Racer will receive points in their race class. (Note: there are sometimes changes in finishes determined by official review the day after the race…review time is allowed until 5pm the day after the race in most cases unless stated on awards night). Any changes to standings on the website reflect the official results.
2. In the event of a tie, winner will be determined by: The most firsts, then seconds, then thirds etc.
