WEDNESDAYS WITH WEST LONDON VR UNTIL 25th OCTOBER
FOR CURRENT STANDINGS CLICK HERE
West London VR Series Eight will run across the WahooRGT platform, until it ceases on 25th October
The shortened series comprises 4 races with courses purposely devised with the traditions on West London VR and the new steering dynamics in mind.
There are several ways to win within the series.
WEST LONDON VR SERIES’ EIGHT OPEN CHAMPIONSHIPS: In each race the winner will be awarded 100 points with 99 for second down to 1 point for 100th and 101st onwards. There are 4 races in the series, on alternate Wednesdays starting on Wednesday 4th October at 7.30pm (UK time) on Wahoo RGT.
WEST LONDON VR SERIES EIGHT LADIES LEAGUES The points from your six best rides in each championship will be counted towards that series’ championship and the female rider with the most points at the end of the series will win the competition. It is possible to augment your score by bettering your current 6th best result.
SCORING LADIES LEAGUE POINTS IN RACES
WAHOO RGT: The leading lady in any race gets 100 points with each subsequent female finisher getting 100 minus the number of places further back in the unisex race they finish. This keeps the incentive to beat men in the sprints because by beating men, you can score more points in the Ladies League. So, if the second lady finisher finishes twenty places behind the first, she gets 80 points and so on…. Our aim is to have Ladies Races where the girls can enjoy the benefits of the peleton, enjoy sprints and don’t end up isolated and solo on the course. It’s a unique concept West London Cycling have evolved to make it more fun for everyone.
WEST LONDON VR SERIES EIGHT TEAM CLASSIFICATIONS. Whilst all riders should enter and ride each race individually, they can concurrently score team points in the team classification in each race if they choose to join a team. Riders will be participating simultaneously in both the individual and team classifications.. Teams can be made up of between two, and ten riders and the individual points earned by the top two from the team in any race are added together to give a Team Score (ie if the top two riders scored, say, 83 and 77 points individually, then the team would also score 160 points). So you will only really need two riders to enter a team, but can’t have more than ten. If only one rider can make it we will still count their solo score for that race. Remember, this is in addition to the individual championships so either being in a team or not being in a team has no effect on your individual placings. You do not need to ride alongside each other, it’s just the best two individual scores that go to the team tally. Clubs may enter more than one team.
