2018 CO. State Championships MASTERS TRACK Boulder Valley

Qualification Current USAC annual licensees who are USA citizens or permanent residents and reside in the local association area known as BRAC as shown on their license are eligible to compete for the State (BRAC) Championship Titles/Medals. Riders MUST meet the age requirements as stated in the race schedule to compete for titles/medals. Men and women on UCI Professional track teams are welcome to race, but are not eligible for State (BRAC) Championship title, medal or jersey. Riders must have a track category of cat 4 or above AND have completed a velodrome certification course at a USAC velodrome. NO ONE-DAY LICENSES ACCEPTED!

Registration Registration for the Masters States is done on a per day basis. Time Trials on Saturday and Mass-Start on Sunday. If you want to compete in both you need to sign up for both days. Online registration will save you money and is available at the link: https://legacy.usacycling.org/register/2018-2701 ​ ​ ​

Race Numbers Riders will be required to use a race number. If you have a current cloth BVV Race Number bring it, if you don’t you will be supplied with a temp number. Riders may secure their number in the middle of their backs for TT events. For the Mass Start events they need to be displayed on the left side of the rider so that the judges can see them clearly.

Warm-Up The track will open both days at 8:00am and as long as the track is dry and deemed safe riders will be allowed to warm-up. Warm-up will end 5 min before the first heat is scheduled – 9:55am

State Championship Jerseys will be awarded to the following winners:

40-49 Men Omnium, Men Endurance Omnium 40-49 Women Sprint Omnium, Women Endurance Omnium 50-59 Men Sprint Omnium, Men Endurance Omnium 50-59 Women Sprint Omnium, Women Endurance Omnium 60-69 Men Sprint Omnium, Men Endurance Omnium 60+ Women Sprint Omnium, Women Endurance Omnium 70+ Men Sprint Omnium, Men Endurance Omnium Omnium Events: Sprint Omnium: Time Trial (500m/750m), Match Sprint & * ​ Endurance Omnium: Pursuit (2km/3km), & ​ Medals will be awarded to the top 3 in each Omnium event. Keirin will not be held for the 70+ group

35-39 age group: Currently BRAC recognizes 10 year age groups for all Masters events starting at 40+. Because we have many riders in the 35-39 category preparing for World Championships BRAC has agreed to run the following events with the State Championships and award medals. 35-39 Women 500m TT and 2km Pursuit and 35-39 Men 1km TT and 3km Pursuit

2018 CO. State Championships MASTERS TRACK Boulder Valley Velodrome

Individual TT The Time Trials and Individual Pursuits will be scheduled to ride as 2-ups as much as possible. We will do this to save time so that the program doesn’t last forever.

Team Events 40+ Women (2 riders) and 4km (4 riders) 40+ Men Team Sprint (3 riders) and 4km Team Pursuit (4 riders) 55+ Men Team Sprint (3 riders) and 4km Team Pursuit (4 riders)

The Team events will be run one up starting and finishing on the home straight. For teams to qualify for medals they must meet age requirements as stated. Women who would like to compete with the Men must meet the age requirement for the team to be eligible for medals, in other words they cannot ride in a class if they are NOT the proper age. Teams that want to compete but have a rider that isn’t a Colorado resident or don’t meet other requirements can race in the “Out of Competition” event. Out of Competition teams are NOT eligible for medals.

Sprint Formats The Sprint competition will be following a Championship Format. Riders will qualify via a Flying 200m TT. Riders will race within their age category. The format for each will be determined by the number of entries: 6 or more entries = Quarter-Finals, Semi-Finals and Finals 4-5 entries = Semi-Finals and Finals 3 or Less = Finals All rounds will be contested over 1 ride. In other words - Single Elimination.

Scratch Races Whenever possible we will run separate fields for scratch races, but when the fields are small combining fields may make more sense. When scratch races are combined the races will be scored separately.

Keirin If there are more than 6 riders in a field we will have keirin heats. If there are 6 ore less will go directly to the final. Whenever possible we will run separate fields for keirin, but when the fields are very small combining fields may make more sense. When keirin races are combined the races will be scored separately.

Points Races Whenever possible we will run separate fields for races, but when the fields are small, combining fields may make more sense. When points races are combined, the race will be scored as one race. This means there ​ ​ will be one final result of the race and then the racers will be separated into their categories for final standings of each category.
