For example, a Solo 50 – 59 year old Male is different from a Solo under 50 Male, etc.
Racer Categories are:
- Solo Racers – one Racer racing/riding the entire distance
- 2 – Person Team – two Racers sharing the entire distance
- 4 – Person Team – four Racers sharing the entire distance
- 5-8 – Person Team – between five and eight Racers sharing the entire distance
- Tandems – tandems are considered “2 – Racers” on one bike in this context. One Tandem would be in the 2 – Person category, two Tandems would be in the 4 – Person Tandem Team Category, etc.
Age Categories are:
- Under 50
- 50 – 59
- 60 – 69
- 70 – 74

- There are no age categories for 5-8 – Person Teams
