Vitality Points for Mountain bike rides

Yes I want Vitality points, but why is it that a 3 day stage race (Grape Escape) gives me 1,400 points and the Argus Road race gives 5,000 points. Even the 99er gave me 5,000 points! Can you believe 228 km Off road vs 108 km on Tar??

You go to www.saactive.com and click on claim discovery point

 

Simple

 

thanks so much for bringing this to my attention, awesome another 20,000 points in the bag!

 

bit miffed now that the malmesbury road ride is only 98km...grrrrrr Perhaps the organisers can add a 2k loop somewhere ;)

Those points count against your fitness points , which give you a total of 15000. You could have used the other points at gym or other races and the 1400 is all that is left over. Once you have done 5 races you will get 5000 bonus points once off.

Pity it's limited to so few mtb events, at least in this part of the world...

 

Would be awesome if Discovery could extend this approach to other online registration sites, no? <_<

I agree with bosb4k...I also received less points than indicated by the point table from Discovery.

If you want more info on Vitality points PM me.

 

If you want more about SA-Active, see this thread, think we covered most of it here

 

 

Am I mistaken or can you not get all the available points by going for 2 fitness tests in a year? Seems a lot easier than missioning.

You can add the event yourself. As long as the results are published somewhere, eg www.spectrumsport.co.za (mtb/triathlon/duathlon) / www.racetec.co.za (road/mtb) / www.championchip.co.za (running/road) / www.raceresults.co.za (running) you can claim your points
