Memberships and Racing Licenses are synonymous and are annual products, valid for 1 year from date of purchase, as defined in 1A3. International and technical member- ship licenses (coaches, officials, drivers, support, etc.) remain valid from January 1 through December 31. 1A3. Membership and Licensing purchase has been updated to reflect a new membership program that equates a membership status with a racing license. All memberships include a domestic racing license with the following limitations and additions. Standard memberships are for anyone who wants to support or be recognized as a member of USA Cycling. This membership product allows entry into Novice events. Ju- niors/Youth and Collegiate riders are automatically upgraded to Premium memberships. Premium memberships allow the member to race in any category and class they are qualified for (and represents the previous “racing license”.Novice is considered a cate- gory on this license. Juniors (racing age under 9-18) Youth (6-8) or Collegiate (eligible) riders are eligible for this product without additional fee and may use this to race in any event that they are eligible for. International licensing does not change and is a separate product and are equally useable in domestic events. 1D1. Category Definitions are changing as we seek to create a better member experience, especially for first time participants. Our beginning riders are being renamed Noviceas , riders with assigned categories are Experienced. Since categorization and numerical scales are part of the “engrained jargon” of our sport, we want to clearly define terms and concepts to assist our entry level riders to know where to participate and how they advance. The regulation now defines this differential as follows: (a) Beginning riders are assigned a Novice category. (b) Experienced riders are assigned to one of the following categories with smaller num- bers representing increasing rider proficiency and ability: (i) Road, Track, and Cyclocross: 4, 3, 2 and 1 for men and women. (ii) Mountain Bike: 2, 1 and Pro for men and women. 4 | @usacycling 1E. Rider Upgrading and Downgrading continues its move to Policy VIII. We are moving towards electronic processing and management of rider’s results in their on-line account (to be implemented). Additionally, races considered for upgrading are expanded. Races permitted by USA Cycling, a UCI affiliated National Federation, or other sanctioning bodies based upon a written agreement with USA Cycling can be considered for upgrades. 1H4. Entry in Races (g) Previous regulations defined race categories for purposes of free entry ofNational and World Champions. The regulation now defines this as a race with a prize list of $5,000 or more, including National championships. 1H5. Maximum Field. Has been edited to note Novice vs. Category 5 and to allow mass partic- ipation events, Gravel Grinders and Grand Fondos to have field sizes greater than 200 riders 1J5 (f). Defending National Champions, eligible to enter the same National Champion event as the previous year, are required to wear their National Champion’s Jersey when competing. 2J5. Pursuit updates. Additional language has been added that matches international regula- tions regarding catching, passing and riding in the slipstream when more than one rider is on the track. 2L. Team Sprint starts will now have several pads placed on the blue band (5, 10 and 15 me- ters from the pursuit line for regulating the start. 2N. Madison events are now defined as over specified distances, with equal numbers of sprints, based on track size. Track Size Laps between sprints <200m 15 laps 200m - <333.33m 10 laps 333.33m 6 laps ≥ 400m 5 laps 01•20 USA Cycling Rule Book | 5 5E1. Downhill regulations are updated to reflect international standards for riders who leave the course and where they must re-enter (between the same two course markers where they exited). 5E2. Dual Slalom guidelines are significantly updated to reflect current practices of manage- ment, timing and tie breakers in a written format for championship events. 7B3. Junior Championship eligibility regulations are updated to reflect long standing language in the annually Published Eligibility Documents. The regulation now indicates what citizen- ship status is required for each age group and for combined age groups. 16 and younger age groups must be citizens or permanent residents of the United States. 17-18 juniors must be U.S. citizens. Combined age group events, for 17-18 juniors and younger,all participants must be U.S. citizens. 8K2/1I. E-bikes are now defined as a type of bicycle for specific competition and how it relates to previous mechanical fraud regulations. 9A5. Requirements for records are rewritten to note that drug testing is a requirement for an attempt, for national records from age 17 and older. Drug testing language remains in the Recognition of Records section.

    Introduction to Track Cycling What to Expect and How to Upgrade Photo: Snowy Mountain Photography Track cycling history ¨ Track racing dates back to the late 1800s and 6-day racing events Velodrome basics ¨ Velodromes can range from less than 200 meters to over 500 meters in length ¨ Wood, concrete, and asphalt 2012 London Olympic Velodrome are common surface materials ¨ Current Olympic velodrome standard is a wood indoor 250 meter velodrome with banking of around 45 degrees ¨ Ed Rudolph Velodrome (aka Northbrook) is a 382 meter asphalt velodrome with banking of around 20 degrees Ed Rudolph Velodrome What are the colored lines on the track? ¨ The ”blue band” or “cote d’azur” marks the track’s inside boundary. Racers may not ride on or below this band. The area below the blue band extending to the grass is called the “apron.” ¨ The black “measurement line” is used to measure the distance around the track. When doing pursuits or time trials, use this line as a guide. ¨ The red “sprinter’s line” defines the border of the sprint lane. The leading rider in this lane is said to “own the lane” and may only be passed by a rider going over on the right. NO PASSING BELOW RIDERS IN THE SPRINTERS LANE. Additionally once a sprint is engaged, a racer who is leading and in the sprinter’s lane can not leave it. ¨ The uppermost blue line is the “stayer’s line” or the relief line. It marks the boundary between faster and slower traffic, with the faster riders below the line and the slower “relief” riders above the line.

Ideally, the Omnium event showcases the best all-round, consistent rider -- speed, endurance and savvy race intelligence make up an International Omnium champion. Points are awarded in reverse order for each event within the omnium. The rider who finishes first in an event receives one point, the second rider will gets two points and so on down the placings. The winner is the rider with the lowest total points. If two riders are tied on points, the combined time of the three time trials will be the tie breaker to determine final placing. Also, riders must complete every event in the omnium. So if WOMEN a rider were to crash in an early segment and not 1) Flying Lap (against the clock) make it to the finish, they would be eliminated 2) 20 km Points Race (10 km for junior women) from continuing on in the next portion.
