B.A.R. Trophy

Awarded to the rider (man or woman) with the best average speed over 50 mile, 100 mile and 12 hour on ‘U’ courses and the ‘Welsh 12’.Short Distance B.A.R. Trophies – Men and LadiesAwarded to the rider with the best average of average speeds over two 10’s, two 25’s and one 50.  All counting events must be on courses in the west district (‘U’ courses).Certificates are awarded to the second and third placed riders.This competition will be run again in 2006 but with a change in the scoring. The points system was an attempt to negate the difference between 'fast' and 'slow' courses and works OK except in the case of new courses. The loss of many courses to traffic lights has led to the introduction of new courses and many competitors have voiced complaint about the points system being unfair. As an example, in 2005 on the new U109 '50'. A rider could score 1000 points more on the 2nd event than the 1st. For the 2006 season Bath CC have a new 10 course, Bristol South have a new 50 and the U18R also has a new variation.With this in mind the West DC have decided to revert to the average of average speed over 1x50mile event, 2x25mile events and 2x10mile events.

John Galway Trophy
