How does the Proximus Cycling eSeries League work

Who?

Everyone can participate for free, either individually or as part of a team. Even more: we have a separate ranking for each category with separate prizes!

Are you also a member of a team in our League and are you one of the top five riders in your team at the end of this race? Then your time also counts for the team classification. Register as part of a team here!

When ?

The Proximus Cycling eSeries League is a virtual cycling competition that runs over 6 separate races. Between January 5 2023 and February 9 2023, we will virtually move through the magic roads of Wahoo Wahoo RGT to a new cycling-crazy region where the battle for first place will erupt.

The 6 races will take place weekly on Thursday evenings at 19:30 CET. Start times will be announced in detail for each race. Riders will be able to do a warming-up 30 minutes prior to the start of the race.

Equipment requirements

Virtually we are traversing the magic roads of Wahoo RGT but in reality, of course, you are battling for the prizes at home. You can participate with the following bike trainers:

• Smart Turbo Trainers
• Smart Bikes
• Classic turbo trainers in combination with a seperate power meter

Always perform a spindown calibration before starting the race so the correct power
is measured accurately.

 

Camera

Riders are strongly advised to film their race with a webcam or other device. By participating in the race, the rider agrees that his /her live video can be brought into the live broadcast from time to time. We will provide a link which riders will be able to easily connect to from their filming device (Zoom or similar).

Performance verification

When participating it is also mandatory to wear a heart rate monitor (not applicable to youth category). The top 25 riders can complete the forms below up to 2 hours before the race or no later than 1 hour after the race. We request a video of your weight + serial number of the indoor cycling trainer used. If the participant refuses this, the result will not be taken into account in the official final ranking.

Forms:

 

The full regulations can be found here.

Connection failure

We reserve the right to eliminate any rider who cannot maintain a stable connection to the Wahoo RGT servers during a race.

Classification

After each race of the Proximus Cycling eSeries League, the top 25 in each category will be rewarded points according to the following method:

• General Classification: Time-based
• Team Classification: Time-based (5 fastest times are eligible)

*Team with fewer than 5 participants? For the missing riders, you get the time of the slowest participant in the category.

• Proximus Fiber Classification: Points-based

The ranking can be found here. 

Prizes

At the end of the 6th and final race, the rider/team that has the best time or earned the most points in the ranking of their category wins. In case of a tie (Proximus Fiber Classification), the number of races participated is considered. If this is still equal, the times of all personal races will be added together. The fastest time will be chosen as the winner.
