Proposal 5: Road Racing - Ungeared Awards [ Revision 2 ]

Committee: General Committee
Submitted on 2016-01-28
Status: Passed on February 07, 2016

Background

The language in the IUF Rulebook would not make it necessary for ungeared awards to be given out at an NAUCC. This proposal maintains the text from the current USA Rulebook with a minor edit to clarify the separation between male and female.

Proposal

Old Rule:

4.2.1 Ungeared Awards

At Unicon, for each gender (male and female) where there are five or more geared riders in an Unlimited event, the fastest three ungeared riders from that gender will be awarded with an ungeared title for that event. This is only for the overall classification, not for Age Groups. Other events can choose to award the fastest three, one, or none of the ungeared riders as they wish.

 

New Rule:

4.2.1 Ungeared Champion

At NAUCC, for each gender (male and female) where there are five or more geared riders in an Unlimited event, the fastest ungeared rider from that gender will be awarded with the North American Ungeared Champion title for that event. The next two ungeared riders from each gender should also be recognized with an award for that event. This is only for the overall classification, not for Age Groups.

Body

As geared hubs become more and more prevalent, there should be a way to honor the achievements of ungeared racers as well.
