Its taken awhile but they are here now, the Gradings for Interwinter 2015... http://cyclingballarat.com.au/images/results/mtb/2015/2015_IWR1_Gradings.pdf

As with previous years everyone's median lap time was calculated which was then sorted and divided into 3 parts. You will notice that Moorey's performance puts him at the tail end of C Grade but everyone know he is a B grade rider so that was manually adjusted.

Hellooooo. I noticed you have moved me into the womens grade. I actually entered Mens C grade as I prefer to race in that category than womens. Can you please move me back?
Thanks

Using median times gives some interesting results. Puts some 5 lapses in A, some in C, and a guy with a single fast lap ended in A mid field. :noidea:

Agreed.

With 6 laps I'm in the middle of B grade, but my average lap times are the same, or at least quite close, to several 5 lap riders in A grade. I've no problems with being put in B grade, I'm either a handy B grader or a rubbish A grader, but I can't understand the logic of the gradings.

There's a few 5 lap riders who were put in C grade! Fair go! To do 5 laps in 3 hours on a course with plenty of climbing shows they're a very capable rider who is up for a challenge. Give them a carrot and chuck 'em in B grade!

Was the aim of grading just to divide the numbers into each grade evenly?

Loved the track today guys. Great work. Thought I'd miss the pineys, not so much. Think I was one of about 3 people who didn't flat :woot:
If you could somehow shoehorn in even a short super D, it would be perfect, but not sure the terrain will allow.
Thanks again all.

Without doubt, I have never felt as cold, wet and miserable on a bike as I did today :behindsofa:

Anyone have any details on the Mount Lofty/ Redesdale Marathon? Distance in particular... Entry Zone directs you to the FGP website which is quite out of date. :crazy:

From memory, if similar to last year, roughly 20, 33 and 46ish. 7km prologue, plus another 1,2 or 3 laps of 13km, depending on grade. Making s huge assumption about unchanged track, nigs.
