Not really... They've had some quite major system changes the last while (to protect your identity, amongst other things) and with the seeding not being SUCH an important issue (compared to the legal obligation to protect indivudual info - yes, you COULD find all kinds of personal details of other people on that website!) I'll gladly calculate my seeding for the next while myself.

 

Have a look at the spreadsheet to estimate your own seeding for a race. Change the values in the orange cells. Sometimes the official seeding results are slightly different as the winner time seems to have been adjusted (much like the beta thing PPA does)

Another option is to go to the Pedal Power website, and follow the Seeding drop down at the top of the page. Although their results (due to the beta) differs quite a bit from those on the Super Seeding Ladder.

pity that this does not take into account total entries in the field aswell as you placing within the field.

Cycle Lab's seeding only took (take? if we see it again) in account events with more than 750? entries, or a certain number of pro teams.

calculing a seeding (straing percentage) base on my placing in the 94.7 gives a decidedly skewed result: ~5.365. this number is somewhat flattering as I never felt that close to the fast guys, so placing alone? NO! It measures you against the back of the field, rather than the front. Being roughly 18000th last is even more irrelevant than being in position ~1000!

IMO a national seeding register covering all cycle disciplines should be the responsibility of CSA.

I assume nothing has changed ,and there is no seeding system ? yes?
