Puncheur’s points race with punchy climb (and sprint) segments. SINGLE / DOUBLE / TRIPLE (50/100/150) FTS points for 3 repeats of main punchy segment. Other segments are best time counts (50 FTS), plus 150 FIN points for custom finish.

*UPDATED Oct 31st, 2023*
(In particular, see route details below about which segments count for triple FTS points)

This is a variation of OTR’s usual Snap Crackle Pop events, which have traditionally been based on segment times not points. Still the same punchy climbs and same opportunity to work together for the best segment times, SCP style, in a new fun points race format that includes both FTS and FIN points. SCP group ride format is still on Sundays.

All categories start in a single pen and see riders of all categories.
Distance is sometimes shorter for cat D.
Default drafting, no power ups, no steering, no TT bikes.
Riders need to join ZwiftPower to see race results in points.
