Crit News – New Rider Prizes

At this week’s Coburg Crit, we will be trialling three new prizes.

In A Grade, we will be running an intermediate sprint.  The sprint will take place in the second half of the race – actual timing will be determined based on the position of other bunches (ie we will be waiting until the main straight is free of other Grades to give A Grade a clear shot at the line).  Riders should note that the bell for the sprint lap will be located on the back straight, just past the roundabout.  The winner of the intermediate sprint will pocket $30.  There are no second prizes.

In B and C Grades, a prize for the Most Aggressive Rider will be on offer. $20 will be awarded to the rider who is judged to be most attacking and best animates the race.

In D Grade, we will be offering a “Break Out Ride” award.  $10 will be awarded to the rider who is judged to best show an outstanding or improved performance.

We hope to see you on Sat morning at National Blvd.  Please note that to avoid delays to race start times, registrations will close at 9.50am.
