Wonder what is happening to the seeding indexes. A bunch of us at work (+- 5 guys) all had good races at Hazeldean (compared to our normal positions, time, etc.) - I would say better as then past races and all of our seedings went up by 2 to 5% in the last calculation. I understand the calculation process (SAS seeding document), but I've never trusted the process and it's not replicable for Jo Soap. Jo Soap cannot calculate his SAS Seeding index to confirm. In golf every golfer understand the handicap system and can calculate your own handicap and it matches the handicap system. Even the system is more 'user friendly' as it shows you more information in terms of which scores count and which not, etc. etc. I really think they need to get a better system, simpler and more predictable.

I started in B at Tygervalley and we must've passed 10 A bunch riders in the first 10 kms. Something is clearly not right with their seedings.

anybody know what the 40km route is like? how hilly and technical?

 

Hopefully more technical than the 1st one...

 

I don't get the seeding system too. Although there seems to be a complex formula that puts you where you are in the system. I am moving from a 20km to a 40km... so I guess I have to start all over again.

 

Looks great though!
