- TTT: Preregister with USA Cycling. Fees will be $20 per team and will follow all USAC regulations, with the

finishers in the team. Course will be one lap and will commence at 1400. Each team will start in intervals on
one minute, refereed by the USAC race official. The following is the USAC regulation on TTT:
“6G5. TTT Team Size In conference races, teams for team time trials in the A category consist of at least three
and up to four riders. The time of the team is taken when the front wheel of the third rider crosses the finish
line. Team sizes for team time trials in categories B-D consist of at least two and up to four riders, and the
time is taken on the front wheel of the second rider.”
“6G6. TTT Categories Subject to additional conference restrictions, riders from various road categories may
form a single TTT team, but the team may not enter a category any lower than the highest category rider on
that team.”
- Collegiate fields are open only to full-time collegiate students with valid USAC Collegiate licenses and full-time high
