How will the rankings work?
- Racers will receive points by placing in events that are promoted by NEBRA clubs that have chosen to participate in the rankings. The points will be based on the point’s scales which are shown under the “How Do These Work?” link on the rankings website.
- All combined categories will be exempt from the rankings with the exception of Women and Pro 1,2 men (example: no Cat 4/5, Men Cat 3/4, Men Pro/1/2/3,). If a race day includes a cat 4/5, cat 3, W3/4, and M35+ races then the only category that would be exempt from the rankings would be the cat 4/5)
- Any race involving Cat 5's does not count toward the ranking as per USA Cycling standard.
- Masters races must include Cat 4 and above racers only, any Master race including cat 5’s will be excluded from the rankings.
