overall points system    results
The Surf City point system
  • change: The series final and the best 3 placings from the first 4 races count toward the final standings. We drop the lowest scoring race (other than the series final) for each rider.
  • All races for a particular class have the same points schedule.
  • Ties will be broken by placings in the series final.

We have two groups of points schedules - for larger fields and for smaller ones. The first group, comprising Sr A, Sr B and Men 35+(A) typically have 40-80 finishers. Those classes have bonuses to the top 6 finishers, and the amount of the bonus is a bit greater. The other classes generally have 10-30 finishers; they have bonuses 4 deep.

We have chosen the number of places earning points in each class based on rider turnout. If turnout in later races increases for a particular class such that all finishers will not get points, we may change the points schedule for that class by increasing the number of places earning points. If we do so, the new schedule will be used in all races for that class.
