Bethel Spring Series 2006

Welcome to the 2006 Bethel Spring Series!

Thanks to everyone who showed up for Sweep Day. It was an awesome turnout and everyone did a great job. Those there for the whole time will be credited for two races per week for the Series. The course looks as good as it can after a recent snowfall - the shoulders are relatively snow and sand free. The road is essentially dry and in good shape. Note: as stated before, these credits are not transferrable.

Now back to our regular program:

Once again you can start off your year of racing by racing at a friendly and fun race. We have two big changes to announce for this year:

1. The addition of another race each week. This is a first, with 3 weeks of an Open Women's race and 3 weeks of a Masters 30+ race. Yes, 30+, not 35+ - this was just changed as of mid January. There is no overall prize for the Masters 30+ races. However the Women's Open races will count towards the overall Women's championships as the M40+/Jr race will not have a Women's field.

2. Champion System has stepped up and provided us with bright new Omnesys Leader's Jerseys. As usual, the jerseys are loaned out to the current weekly leader and at an awards ceremony on the last week, the overall winners will be able to permanently receive their Leaders Jersey. Preview them here.

This year will be the second year we hold separate weekly events with a separate USCF Permit number for each week. This has allowed us to increase the prize money we can advertise and will help you with your USCF rankings in the state and overall. When possible we report the top 10 finishing places to the USCF.

Per usual, online registration is available at BikeReg and RaceListings.

Overall leaders will be tracked for the following categories:

1. Category 5
2. Category 4
3. Juniors
4. Womens
5. Masters 40+
6. Category 3-4
7. Category Pro-1-2-3

Overall rankings are determined by Series Points awarded each week:

First Place: 7 Series Points
Second Place: 5 Series Points
Third Place: 4 Series Points
Fourth Place: 3 Series Points
Fifth Place: 2 Series Points
Sixth Place: 1 Series Point

On the last week, the winner of the race will be awarded 10 Series Points, with second place at 7 Series points, down to seventh place with 1 Series Point.

Best teams will be tracked for:

1. Category 4
2. Masters 40+
3. Category 3-4
4. Category Pro-1-2-3

Team rankings are calculated by using the top three team members' Series Points total in the overall standings.

For further questions, please refer to the new FAQ page.

Finally a NEW Spring Series event: The Plainville Spring Series. More info in the link.

Happy racing,
