The Handicapped Critters
This is a series of short course criterium races around Canberra, were there is an even playing field, that is, each rider's lap times are handicapped, so the rider that crosses the line first may not be the winner, it's more likely to be the rider that improved the most.
The idea is to motivate each other to lift a little and get a bit fitter, and everyone has a fair chance to take the win, no matter what the skill or fitness level! We'll track results and times as each race is run, then adjust everyones handicaps, then at the end of the season the overall winner will have attained the respect of his peers and the honour of being named "Handicapped Critter" :)
