Team of the Sprints... MONDAY MORNINGS

Rides
1

Monday mornings have undergone a facelift…
Now, in somewhat of the same format as KOM, the monday morning ride is changing to a Team of the Sprints.
Why Team? Well, because we are a team and cycling is a team sport led by tactics, something that we haven’t really worked at before.
When? Meeting at the hairpin (on the F1 track) at 6:45, if you don’t know how to get there we may have a
How it works? So we’ll divide the riders coming into 2-4 teams (depending on how many people show up) and instead of worrying about how you do, you’ll be worrying about how your team does… ie, a team of three will have a sprinter, (1-2) leadout men, and on some laps one of the lead out men will become an attacker.
The F1 circuit will have two sprint points, one will be halfway around the track known as the intermediate sprint (roughly somewhere by the administrative building) and the final sprint will be on the straightaway after the hairpin. After the “final sprint” on each lap the group will be neutralized so everyone can catch up. We came up with this at the end of the ride last week and seem to think it will work…

The breakdown will be (all points go to the team)//revised sprint points
Intermediate sprint
1st place=1

Final=
1st place=4
2nd place=2
3rd place=1

LAST LAP DOUBLE POINTS ARE AVAILABLE

PLEASE SIGN UP IF YOU WANT TO COME
also, i will be taking team fees to those of you who want to ride with the club. If you want to get on the list for Cycles Technique, you best do it soon.

This is terrifying. I’ll be there for sure!

3

Not 100% sure but I like the idea…

4

How long would we be planning on riding? I have that 8:30 class thing that might make this impossible for me.

5

Same as Eric.

6

Same as Eric and Josef; will come if I can make it to 8:30 class. I can always take notes in a shammy, so cutting it close is fine with me, lol.

7

Mondays start earlier now so everyone can come sprinting. So yeah, you should be able to make it to 8:30s. Sign up!

8

Could some of us meet at the gates a bit earlier to go there together? I dont know the best route to F1… or where it is… or how long it takes to get there. lol

9

IN!

10

I don’t live close to the gates, so if somebody wants to lead from the gates, that’s cool.

11

I will lead from the gates. What time?

12

I might meet you guys on the course but I might leave early.

13

THIS IS IN THE MORNING

SOORY FOR ANY CONFUSION.
if you’re meeting at the gates, be ready to leave from them at 6:25?

14

15

say we go straight to the f1 track… where are we going to meet once we’re there?

16

Ill be at the Roddick gates by 6:25, probably a couple mins earlier… would be much obliged to whoever shows up and leads!
Cheers, see y’all then!

Dennis,

if you head directly to the track, meet at the hairpin. The big U turn at the eastern most end of the track.

18

This ride has the worst name ever.
