2009 Racing - Bigger & Better For all the information regarding our 2009 events, please surf on over to our new website: www.albertamtbracing.com 2008 Provincial XC Championships Edmonton, AB Registration is now open. All information regarding the race can be viewed [here] An important blurb from MTB Coordinator Roddi Dr. Smooth Lega: All racers at the Alberta Provincial Championships must be either a current UCI/CCA racing license holder, or an ABA general member. There will be day licenses available for general members at a fee of $10. Keep in mind that general members are only allowed to take part in 2 races per year. Have you used up your 2 races yet? If you want to race and you have used up your 2 races, then you must purchase a racing license which can be done online at www.albertabicycle.ab.ca . Any riders wishing to qualify for a 2008 Best All 'Round (BAR) standing must race in the highest ability category in their age group. If you don’t’ race in the highest ability category, then you will not receive points for the BAR. Here are some examples of how this will work. If you are a Senior Novice, Sport, or Expert rider, and you want to qualify for a placing in the BAR, you must race the XC Provincials as a Senior Elite. If you are a Master A, B, C, D Sport or Novice, and you want to qualify for a placing in the BAR, you must race the XC Provincials as a Master A, B, C, D Expert. If you are a Junior Sport or Novice, and you want to qualify for a placing in the BAR, you must race the XC Provincials as a Junior Expert. Got it? Good.
