Northern Beaches Cycling Club is once again hosting racing at Australia’s Number 1 Bespoke Cycle Circuit, Splendid Park in Yanchep.
Splendid Park Points Racing
Riders aim to gain points, with the highest score winning the race. Points can be scored at randomised Intermediate sprints (indicated by whistle). Bonus points for lapping the field and last lap finish.
Depending on field sizes, the intention is to stagger Open vs Women field start times, however provisional start times are combined for now. Points will be counted separately for Open and Women’s fields. Accumulated points over the length of the race determine the overall podium (rather than last lap result).
Juniors will get 3 races for the price of one
Race 1. Single lap ITT (Individual Time Trial)
Race 2. 2 x lap handicap
Race 3. Handicapped criterium race

Race Schedule (Subject to Change- refer to northernbeachescycling.com post-registration close)
At race director or commissaire discretion times may be modified. Dropped riders that may interfere with race finish may be withdrawn from the circuit. As there will be 2 grades on course at one time, give way to the lower grade finishing their last lap with a sprint. You will still have 10 mins to go with the higher grade. We will endeavour to start women’s grades seperate to open grades, however, field numbers will determine if a women’s grade is integrated. Points will remain seperate.
