Notes for Juniors and U23s

U23s are scored within the P/1/2 field but will be recognized with an additional podium for the top 3 riders.

U15 and U19 races are one wave, one field, one set of results, but with additional podium recognition for the top 3 9-10, 13-14, and 15-16 riders within those waves. Fast 13-14s who are cat. 4 or higher should consider “racing up” into the longer U19 race.
