Individual Time Trial (ITT)
  • No Comments

Event Description :

An individual time trial (ITT) is a road bicycle race in which cyclists race alone against the clock on flat or rolling terrain, or up a mountain road such as Alpe d Huez (in French: contre la montre – literally “against the watch”, in Italian: tappa a cronometro “stopwatch stage”). There are alsotrack-based time trials where riders compete in velodromes, and team time trials (TTT). ITTs are also referred to as “the race of truth”, as winning depends only on each rider s strength and endurance, and not on help provided by team-mates and others riding ahead and creating a slipstream. The opening stage of stage race will often be a short individual time trial called a prologue.Starting times are at equal intervals, usually one or two minutes apart. The starting sequence is usually based on the finishing times in preceding races (or preceding stages in the case of a multi-stage race) with the highest ranked cyclist starting last. Starting later gives the racer the advantage of knowing what time they need to beat (and also makes the event more interesting to spectators). Competitors are not permitted to draft (ride in the slipstream) behind each other. Any help between riders is forbidden. The rider with the fastest time is declared the winner.

ITT will give an opportunity to riders Bench Mark/Gauge their fitness and performance in an event where you only compete against the clock and give your Personal Best !!

All category bikes are Invited !!

– Event to be conducted by Miten Thakker, Pro Cycling Coach

Advance Registration Required (Free of Cost)
Venue : Karnavati Link Road @ SP Ring Road
