I'm the #1 Cat5....................In my ZIP Code

Seriously though, I don't put too much importance in the rankings. All that matters is how you do in head to head competition.

I'm #2 in my zip code, but if I murder my pal Joe Straub (who won the 35+ High Point TT category with a sub 21 minute time on Saturday, I did 26:39) I'll be first.

I am considering it.

I'm astonished that I did one USCF TT on Saturday and by MONDAY they've posted my national rank. The Internet is truly amazing.

Don't worry. I'm not that good (yet). I think its because I'm the ONLY Cat5 in my ZIP code!

As far as posting of results goes, how long does it typically take to get them on the USCF website? I'm guessing it's really a matter of how fast the promoter submits them, right?

None of my races have been reported. But I was the number one B racer in the RMCCC this spring. I'm still the best cat 4 in my old zipcode from last year's results.

49th TT, 366th road Cat 3. Not bad for only a handfull of cat 3 races. Now if only some of them were actually posted to USAC.

Actually I kind of inherited it from guys who moved up to A's. I was 5th before the CC race and found myself in the lead after mesa state.

I think two guys from your school (CSU im assuming) moved up to A's, which helped me a lot.

But no, none of our races have been reported and I doubt they will be. But I imagine they might still work for some upgrade resume boosting

I belive only one of our guys (CSU) moved up after the Oval Crit. Mesa was a baad race for us, did you guys have problems with the tacks? One guy flatted three times...

I'm going to use the collegiate results for my upgrade from 5's to 4's this summer, I doubt it will be a problem. Mass start, time length, field number, got it all.

Remember only your best three (3) races in the last 12 months count:
https://www.usacycling.org/results/r...nical_uscf.pdf

And it's based on how *low* you score, with a win being the lowest points scoring place.

Small fields penalize for each place as the points spread is the same whether there are 10 or 100 racers. So in a 100 race field, each place is +{x} points. In a 10 rider field, it's +10{x} points per place (given that the races are the same in category etc).

There are weaknesses in the system. For example, most of my placings are at the race series I promote. It's a criterium but it lists as a road race sometimes even though we applied for the permits as a crit. So I ended up a phenomenal road racer (haven't entered one since the late 90s).

Also, many promoters don't send results into the USCF. So that doesn't help in getting stats together.

For the record:

My placings for the last 12 months - DNF, 3, 44, 15, 9, 8, 16, 32. Based on that info alone, my national ranking (remember, ALL my road race stuff comes from crits):

Your USCF Criterium Cat 3 Standings
2 Rank in your zip code (06851)
15 Rank in your state (CT)
18 Rank in your riding age (40)
65 Rank in 5 year age range (40-44)
81 Rank in 10 year age range (40-49)
370 Overall Rank

Your USCF Road Race Cat 3 Standings
2 Rank in your zip code (06851)
22 Rank in your state (CT)
33 Rank in your riding age (40)
118 Rank in 5 year age range (40-44)
157 Rank in 10 year age range (40-49)
802 Overall Rank

places (2000-2007):
1 - twice
2 - four
3 - six
4 - three
5-9 - seven
10-50 - seven
DNF - two
