Club Champion : Stephen Halpin 56.13

There were some major infringments of the drafting rules last Thursday,
and these were noted and confimed by multiple sources.
We do know that some riders are new to the sport and may not be aware of the rules,
regarding drafting and being overtaken, but we do have to disqualify some riders
as their times are not a reflection of a solo effort. Time Trials are 'rider v the clock'
and no assistance can be taken from any other rider whether in the race or not.
Please also note below, the rules regarding being overtaken. (Hugh Byrne)

Easy version of drafting rules: If you come up on another rider you have two choices:

  1. To remain at least 7 meters behind the rider in front of you.

  2. Attempt to pass the rider in front of you. If you attempt to pass, you have 15 seconds to do so. If you do not pass within 15 seconds you must drop back out of the 7 meter drafting zone.
    If your front wheel passes the front wheel of the person you are overtaking that person must drop back out of the 7 meter drafting zone. The passed rider must drop all the way out of the drafting zone before attempting to re-pass the rider ahead. 7 meters is about 21 feet or 3 bike lengths
