RRIBike Posted February 16, 2023 Share 15 minutes ago, bleedToWin said: Working theory for those seeded in @ and &, that belong in $: Race office did a license lookup on the archaic CSA system and only received matches for those holding elite licenses. Those with Junior or Vets 30-39 licenses got a false negative and were assumed to be unlicensed and thus general seeded, hence being lumped with the 40-49 and seeded or the 50+ and seeded start groups. This theory holds for those also entered for TdPPA as the broken lookup seeding system would already have you in the highest group it thinks you are eligible for.

EJC Posted February 16, 2023 Share The Tour de PPA entries only close on Monday so if someone already got their seeding and entered the Tour de PPA now would they then also fall part of the seeding run again at the end of the month? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the $ group looks at each other all race long like at 99er it would make a fun overall 🤣 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good Qu this. I'm sure we can just ask for a re-seed because I haven't entered yet but do plan on doing it. I can either ride a really good race and ask for a better seeding or I could be really crappy on the day and then just keep my current seeding which isn't too bad. I only want to start earlier so that when I get to the top of Edinburgh the bunch which would catch me as I would have been dropped would still be a bunch pushing for close to 3hrs. I guess in a way it's a win win for me then with the seeding already out and not having entered Tour De PPA yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends on the weather on the day and the guys in the group, But group wise, going on the last few years, I'd prob say 1C will have a few guys, 1B will have more which means a bigger bunch of guys working together which will make it "easier" for lack of a better word. But from previous years, 1D downwards you wont get many, just the very odd few extremely strong guys who genuinely don't belong there anyway and end up basically riding a solo race.
