Membership categories eligible for this: Full\, Rookie\, Junior/College\, Out-of-Town\, Group Ride/Workout\, Cyclocross.  Not eligible: ——-. To join\, click here. \n\nYou are allowed to do Time Trials with the “Group Ride/Group Workout” Membership!\n\nEvent Rules:\nThis event is the Buffalo Bicycling Club Club Time Trial Championship!  Individual Time Trials are a race against the clock\, just you and your fastest time against everyone else’s time.  To make the competition fair across the board\, we are going to have this event be used with a road bike only for the championship title.  Use your road bike as you would for a mass start road race (aka “Cannibal” style\, named after famed European pro rider Eddy Merckx from the 1970s). \n*If you would like to ride a time trial or triathlon bike\, please feel free to do so\, but your time won’t count towards the championship title \nJust you against the clock.  Line up at your designated start time and get ready to rip it on your road bike on our 12.5-mile (20km) out and back course on West River Road! \n\nRoad Bike (aka Cannibal) Category Equipment\n\nYES– Road bike\, same as a mass start event\, spoked wheels of any depth\, any type of road or aero helmet\, and skinsuits\nNO– solid disc wheels\, tri-spoke wheels\, clip-on aero bars\n\n\nTT Bikes (not club championship eligible)\n\nYES- Time Trial bike with aero bars\, teardrop TT helmets\, and solid rear disc wheels are all allowed.  Triathlon bike that is otherwise “UCI Illegal” is also allowed\n\n\n\nParking:\nPark at GP50 NY\, 2770 Long Rd\, Grand Island\, NY 14072 \nCourse:\nClick Here to View the Course Page.  An out-and-back 12.5 mile (20km) race against the clock!  Start at West River and Long Rd according to the start number you receive when you sign in.  Turnaround is at approximately 2435 Bush Rd\, 6.25 miles down the Island. \nWhat You Should Expect on Race Day:\n\nPlease plan to arrive 30-45 minutes early to get into your riding clothes and get your bike ready.  Get in a good warmup after signing in.\nWrite down your name on the sign-in sheet.  This will determine your start order\, so pay attention to the start number and start time that you receive at sign-in.\nAt 6:30pm\, the first rider will go off at the start line on West River Rd on the river and the cut-through street of Long Road.  Make sure you arrive at the start line 5 minutes before your individual start time so you are not late.  If you are late to your start time\, the clock starts whether you are there or not!\nWe will be recording everyone’s finish time to determine everyone’s results\n\nSunday Series Club Races Individual Scoring:\nThis race is part of the club’s two halves of the season with 4 races each. There will be an ‘A’ and ‘B’ field scored at each race\, with additional separate scoring below. Points are awarded in each race by finishing place: \n1st = 15 points \n2nd = 14 points \n3rd = 13 points \n4th = 12 points \n5th = 11 points \n6th = 10 points \n7th = 9 points \n8th = 8 points \n9th = 7 points \n10th = 6 points \n11th = 5 points \n12th = 4 points \n13th = 3 points \n14th = 2 points \n15th and after = 1 point \nCLUB CHAMPIONSHIP\nThis race is also the Buffalo Bicycling Club’s championship! The annual champion’s jersey will be awarded to the first BBC member in the following fields: A Men\, A Men Master’s 50+\, A Women\, B Men\, B Men Master’s 50+\, B Women\, and Junior. The first Full BBC member to finish in those championship races will be crowned the club champion for the year.  They will win the club champion jersey to be worn at BBC time trial events for the next 12 months! \nPodiums will be done at the parking site after the race. \nFirst and Second Half of the Season\nThe Sunday Series Club Racing season will be split into two halves for scoreboards reflecting a first half and second half of the season.  This allows for more focused leaderboard competition and a reset mid-season to start over to compete on a new leaderboard! \nFirst half of the season will be: \n\n4/26/2026- Grand Island Fireball Full Loop\n5/17/2026- Corfu\n5/28/2026- Grand Island Individual Time Trial (also the club time trial championship!)\n5/31/2026- Marilla (also the club road race championship!)\n6/21/2026- Strava Segment Group Ride\n\nSecond half of the season will be: \n\n7/2/2026- Grand Island Two-Person Time Trial\n7/19/2026- Strava Segment Group Ride\n8/23/2026- Corfu\n9/13/2026- Grand Island Fireball Full Loop\n\nYou get to drop 1 race from each half-season to determine your overall score (best 4 of 5 in the first half\, best 3 of 4 in the second half) \n  \nMaster’s Sunday Series Racing\nWe are including a version of separate scoring for Masters Men’s 50+ racers!  Master’s 50+ will race in the A field and will be scored against the A’s\, but Master’s points will be pulled out into a separate Master’s leaderboard.  How does this work?  If Master’s 50+ riders get 4th\, 7th\, and 8th in the A race\, their 4th/7th/8th place points will go towards their Master’s standings.  They’ll be on the Men’s A leaderboard and the separate Master’s leaderboard. \nWomen’s Sunday Series Racing\nWomen racing in the Men’s A field will have the same version of separate scoring as the Men’s Master’s 50+ above.  If women riders get 4th/7th/8th in the Men’s A race\, their 4th/7th/8th place points will go towards a Women’s A leaderboard\, as well as the Men’s A leaderboard. \nWomen racing in the Men’s B field will have the same version of separate scoring as well.  If women get 4th/7th/8th in the Men’s B race\, their 4th/7th/8th place points will go towards a Women’s B leaderboard\, as well as the Men’s B leaderboard. \nMarshalling a Race\nWe always need volunteers to score our races!  If you volunteer to be a scorer/timer for a Sunday Series club race yourself\, you’ll get 10 points towards your Sunday Series standings at that race!  You can do this up to 2 times per season.  Please note that one marshal or mentoring duty is required this year for your club points to count!  Sign up to marshal here. \n  \n  \n  \n
