EVENT DESCRIPTION
This team pursuit event is a fun and effective way to enhance your cycling endurance and strength!
In this event, three teams will start at different times. Team C will begin first, followed by Team B, with Team A departing last. The goal is for the A and B Teams to catch Team C at or near the finish, with all three teams holding their respective advertised pace.
As faster teams catch up to those ahead, riders in slower groups can join the speedier team as they pass by, allowing them to increase their effort. The catch will also allow riders on the faster teams the option to join the slower teams and recover until the finish. If a rider joins a faster team and finds they cannot maintain the pace, they can drop back to their original group and try again the following week to see if they can keep up longer. This approach is an excellent way to engage in more vigorous riding within a team setting.
All rides have a 30-minute Late Join period. During this time, if you feel that the team you selected is either too fast or too slow for your desired pace, you can switch teams within the first 30 minutes after the start time of the team or category you wish to join.
We do not sweep during the first 30 minutes of a ride. If you fall behind for any reason during this time, please use the Late Join feature to rejoin.
Generally, we do not have designated sweepers (Red Beacon) in place. However, after the 30-minute late join period is over, if you reach out early enough, one or more stronger riders may come to assist you. To request assistance, please send a message in the format HELP(X), where X indicates the number of seconds you are behind. For example, use HELP5 if you are 5 seconds behind.
We look forward to having you join us!
