Starting on Saturday 7th September and running initially for 8 consecutive Saturdays. This is an experimental race league with the emphasis on team work between race categories.

Briefly: the event is for pre-registered teams of 4. There are 2 pens. Pen A (Super-domestique) is for any category of rider but it has enforced Zwift TT bike. Cat A riders (4wkg and above according to Zwiftpower rankings) are restricted to this pen. Each team is limited to one team member in this pen.
Pen B (Peleton) is for all riders up to Cat B (up to 3.99wkg - Cats B, C and D according to Zwiftpower rankings). This pen will have the remaining 3 team members. Scoring is based on the highest placed Cat C rider in each team (therefore there will be a minimum requirement of one Cat C rider per team). A minimum of 3 riders per team must finish.
Pen A sets off at 9am UK time BUT... Pen B sets off at 08:50 UK time. Why? all will be explained on the organiser's Facebook page!
See? I told you the rules are complex! And that's just the half of it!
You're also gonna need Discord comms to compete effectively.
Come and help the experiment to succeed (and influence it's growth) and the full proper league will start on Saturday 2nd November 2019 and run for the rest of the Northern Hemisphere Winter.
