The entry system will be up later this week. Closing time is in the rules (I think). It's on the morning of the opening stage, Gerald?

 

Prizes will be announced later this week.

Closing time is midday (12:00) on Saturday, 02 July.

How the tour competition works?

 

Basic Rules:

• Pick a squad of 12 riders (9 active riders and 3 substitute riders):
  • On each stage, the 9 active riders picked will score points based on the scoring criteria for each stage;
  • There is no limit on the number of changes you can make, but these can only be done on the 2 rest days and is limited to your squad of 12 riders. Riders already substituted can be used again, without limit.
  • If a rider(s) withdraw(s) from the Tour due to injury, rules discretion, etc., your pool of riders will reduce accordingly.
• Based on the performance of each active rider, you will score points in various categories.
• Entries close at the time the first stage is due to start – 12:00 (SA Time) on 02 July 2016.
• Entries can only be submitted using the submission form setup by Admin. The link to this form will be available closer to the start time.

A summary of how points can be scored is shown below:
