Not sure about
@Spartak or
@Brusgaard.
We could race as one squad, but as teams are limited to 6 riders that will mean we end up with some riders not getting a race. Two teams is an option, but that could mean the 2nd team not having enough riders if someone is not available.
Not easy!
I don't think there's a straightforward satisfactory resolution for this. From my understanding of the rules (i.e. max participation of 6 riders in a race + min of 3 for scratch races + min of 4 for TTTs), we either have to:
a) Prioritise scoring points for our 'A' team, which could mean some rider's missing out if the numbers don't add up
b) Prioritise getting everyone a race, split across our A and B teams, which could lessen our chances in getting max points for the A team
E.g. if 8 riders are available:
a) we could have 4 each in our A and B teams, so everyone gets a race but A team only gets a score from 4 riders
b) 6 riders could ride for the A team, giving A team max chance of points but 2 riders will miss out
If only 6 riders or less are available then they could all race 'A' etc.
No obvious resolution that I can see. Am I missing something? Probably
