Welcome to this special HSRL season. To make this an extra challenging season we mix it up a bit
with different race formats, some traditional HSRL courses and some brand new courses that have
never featured in this series. Make sure you’re optimally prepared for each race by reading the race
description every week. You can find the race description below, on zwiftpower or on our facebook

Each week there are seven different events to choose from - choose whichever suits your schedule
best.
Race 1 - ITT - Bologna TT (1 lap)
Herd Summer Racing League kicks off with a short prologue on the Bologna Time Trial lap. This one is
simple, the rider that takes the shortest time to reach the finish line on top of the Bologna Climb is
the winner for this race. Pick your best TT-bike for this race.
General Classification
Every week your best result determines how many league points you receive, with the winner of
every race scoring 50 points, 2nd place getting 49 and so on, down to 1 point for 50th place. The
