| Handicap
Competition Beacon RCC runs a season-long handicap competition
for members competing in time trials. Handicapping involves giving each rider
in an event a time allowance, which is deducted from the actual time it takes
him or her to complete the course. The idea of the handicap competition is to
give everyone a chance of winning and to reward the rider who improves the most.
A handsome trophy is awarded to the winner of the series. The rules and
handicap system are being redefined for 2012 - full details will be available
in due course. |
