Leagues now forming

League Competition Format:


As you know two weeks from today is Labor Day. The first day of the rest of our lives. Everything changes. You will never be the same. The CompuTrainer Multi-Rider Center officially opens at the Bainbridge Athletic Club. The Two Person Team format will be one of the highlights of the new system offering a once a week racing opportunity in ten exciting categories:


Men's Open: 70 & Under (combined age)

Men's Open: 70 & Over

Women's Open: 70 & Under

Women's Open 70 & Over

Master Men: Plus 100 combined

Master Women: Plus 100 combined

Junior Male: Both U23

Junior Female: Both U23

Mixed Open

Masters Mixed: Plus 100 combined


Each week will see a different course from 10-40 miles. Season lasts 10 weeks. Winners of each division will receive awards and prizes and everybody gets to race, train and have some serious indoor cycling fun. Each team will consist of three people, one being an alternate. You ride your own bike to the pre-set course. Winner is determined by total team time. Individuals may be a part of more than one team. Cost is $100 per team. That is 10 races, or less than a breakfast at the Streamliner Diner per race. Serious bargain any way you cook your eggs.


6-9 on Tuesday and Thursday nights for the inaugural League season. We can add additional days if participation warrants.


I am putting out a few feelers today to get my team established. We did a 60 minute HIT session at 0530 to prep the motors. First time I ever played a Judas Priest tune, no less. Recovery run at 5 in the park later. In between is paperwork, jersey and flooring finish and more brick work on the PO.


Go Team RCV!


Pic is from Cat 4-5 road race at Sea Otter earlier this year. CompuTrainer Multi-Rider Two Person League, starts soon. Just like outdoor racing, without the road.

can i get you and tony on my team?

FW said...

I would be up for a team effort. Might be a little tricky with my business travel.

I am needing to stay 'neutral' for the fist season in order to administrate and trouble-shoot. Meaning, I can race on one team only and that team has already been established in the Masters Mixed division. The NOTORIOUS MM division, I should say. You two should team up, and, as FW illustrates, travel and other considerations necessitates an alternate. Where's Bernie?

ej said...

then as i understand it tony and i are teaming up with shakira as our regular third with pamela anderson in the wings as backup in the masters mixed. bernie can be on our team too i guess. he will enjoy hanging with pamela...

i was kidding obviously, with that first comment.

KML5 said...

I knew that

FW said...

Paul is up for EJ's team. Next month he qualifies for the 100+ masters.

KML5 said...

A rocking assemblage of big ring power.

ej said...

who is Paul and is he really 100? this is too old for my team. Pam is almost too old...

Bernie is way too old but we'll make an exception for him

FW said...

It's the combined age of the team. You know Paul. He does IP at PC.

As well as being the PTW winner in the BAC15 TT over the winter!
