Stage Details

Open 1, 2, 3 – Sprint 

Open 1, 2, 3 (Stage 1) will be “Sprint” race. The riders will have 15 minutes to set the fastest time on a defined 300-meter segment, which is part of a 1.7 km circuit. The fastest rider through the segment will score the maximum points, and points will cascade down according to their positions.

This is a highly tactical stage because riders could opt to wait until the very last moment in the race and sprint through the segment, ensuring no one else can set a faster time. Alternatively, riders could go early and set the best time and patiently wait to see if it is beaten, saving their energy for the later stages.

Points are awarded as follows to the top 20 riders as ranked by their fastest time through the segment during the session.

Fastest time // 40, 38, 36, 34, 32, 30, 28, 26, 24, 22, 20, 18, 16, 14, 12, 10, 8, 6, 4, 2

Open 1 – Strategist 

Open 1 (Stage 2) will be “Strategist” where riders will compete on an 8.9 km circuit, that includes a unique 1.7 km climb.

The course has points available for those who reach the base of the climb first (Sprint Checkpoint) at 2.1 km, as well as for those who reach at the top of the climb (Climb Checkpoint) at 3.8 km.

Points will also be awarded on rider position across the finish line. The finish line is not at the top of the climb, so you need to save some energy over the climb, to race to the finish.

Points are awarded as follows to the first 20 riders across each point.

Sprint Checkpoint // 20, 19, 18, 17, 16, 15, 14, 13, 12, 11, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1
