Rules & Regulations

1.0   Criterium Road Race (Apply to both Category)

1.1   A criterium is a circuit race held on a small course entirely closed to traffic. Riders may only ride in a forward direction on the course but may dismount and run backward to a repair pit when it is safe to do so [warning or free lap denied if a dangerous situation was created].

1.2   The following are alternative methods for handling lapped riders in criteriums (i.e. riders who have been caught by the lead rider(s) in the race). The method chosen by the organizer with the Chief Referee must be clearly explained to the riders prior to the start of the race.

(a) A rider who falls so far behind as to be considered out of contention may be removed from the race by the Chief Referee.

(b) Alternatively, lapped riders may be permitted to remain in the race and all will finish on the same lap as the leaders.

1.3    Riders on different laps may work with each other except that no rider may drop back to assist a rider who has broken away from the field [disqualification for accepting such assistance].

1.4   Free Lap Rule. Riders shall normally cover the distance of the race regardless of mishaps and must make up any distance lost on their own ability unless a free lap is granted for mishaps. A free lap may be granted for each mishap subject to the following rules.

(a) Bicycle inspection and repairs must be made in an official repair pit. If announced in advance by the Chief Referee, riders are permitted to cut the course to get to a pit. Either an official following vehicle shall transport riders to a single repair pit, near the start/finish line.

(b) There will be a referee stationed at repair pit to determine if the mishap was a legitimate one and if the rider is entitled to a free lap. The referee must keep track of all riders who are granted free laps and submit a written report to the Chief Referee at the end of the race.

(c) A rider who is granted a free lap must return to the race in the position held at the time of the mishap. A rider who was in a group shall return at the rear of the same group the next time around. A rider returning to the race after a free lap shall be ineligible for sprint prizes for one lap thereafter.
