How to Win 

Timed Segments Used for Scoring

There are multiple timed segments in each route used for the E-Fondo Series, with the exception of Bogus Basin E-Fondo, which is a single timed-segment hillclimb. A rider’s standings are based on the cumulative time through all timed segments, fastest cumulative time wins. Start-to-finish time plays not role in this competition format. Athletes of all ages will compete simultaneously and results will be reported by sex (Male/Female) and age group (10-year age groups, i.e., 23-34, 35-44, 45-54, etc.).

Immediate results will show start-to-finish times and standings. THESE ARE NOT VALID FOR THE SERIES. Results based on timed segments will be published here within 48 hours of the finish.
