WOLFI’S INDIVIDUAL TIME TRIAL

We present the Wolfi’s Individual Time Trial on Sunday morning 17th September at Hudayriyat Island to be raced over 13.6Kms for riders 15years+ and 6.8km for juniors 8 to 14 years. An Individual Time Trial (ITT) is a race in which cyclists race alone against the clock in either the time trial bike or road bike contest. 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 teammates and others riding ahead and creating a slipstream. Starting times are at equal intervals, usually set between 30 seconds and 1 minute. The starting sequence is usually based on the finishing times in preceding races with the highest ranked cyclist starting last. 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.
