Points and Scoring: For each division, the top 5 scores will count towards the team total. The top 3 teams will receive podium ceremony and awards (TBD)
Open Category: A maximum of 2 open category riders can score towards the team competition
Team Points: The table to the left shows the points awarded for each finish position and category.
Women/Girls: We considered bonus points for women and girls like NICA, but decided that even with a great turn out there is an inherent advantage to more women on a team due to small fields.
