7.2. COMPETITION FORMAT AT THE TRIALS YOUTH NATIONAL TEAMS 7.2.1. STARTING PROCEDURE The cadets total UCI points of each national team will determine the start order in the trials youth national teams competition. The national teams without UCI points will start first. The start order will be determined at random. The national team with the lowest total UCI points will start after the national teams without UCI points. The start order of the riders in each national team is determined by each team manager. The first riders to start the competition belong to the national teams without UCI points. The remaining riders are from the national teams with UCI points and so on. The same procedure applies for the remaining riders. Riders ride the sections one by one and only once. 7.2.2. RIDING SYSTEM The penalty points will apply as per art. 7.1.082 to 7.1.119. A rider starts the section with zero penalty points and zero points. A rider can choose the level (gates) he/she wants to ride in each part of the section or skip some of them. The level gates chosen in each part can only be passed once. If the rider finishes the first part of the section with zero penalty points, his/her score will be the points corresponding to the level (gate) chosen. The same procedure must be followed with the other parts in the section. A part in a section starts when the front wheel s axle passes the cross-wise tape on the ground. Once the rider starts the second and following parts of the section, he/she can go back to the previous part. In the case that the rider commits a penalty point on the part that he/she has already finished, the penalty point will count as a penalty point for the part which is about to start. The rider can only make five dabs in the whole section. If a rider has got five penalty points before finishing the whole section, he/she has to leave the section, but he/she keeps the score from the completed parts. Example: A rider finishes the first two parts with zero penalty points on the blue level. This means that the rider scores 40 points. Then, on the third part the rider makes one penalty point, which means that he/she won t score points in this part and he can only commit four more penalty points on the other two parts. If on the other parts the rider finishes with zero penalty points on the red level, this means that he/she scores 60 points. So, this rider finishes the section with 100 points. 7.2.3. RESULTS The points scored by each rider count as points for his/her trials national team s overall score. The winner is the trials national team with the highest score. In case of tie, the trials national team that scored points riding on the highest level (gate) will break the tie. Union Cycliste Internationale Page 4 / 9
