Club Competitions and Leaderboards

The club runs two competitions throughout the year, with awards and trophies presented at the end of the season. The table below describes which events to enter for each competition along with the current leaderboard. Upcoming racing events can be found here.

Members are rightly proud of their achievements in all competitions, and we maintain a comprehensive database of club records and personal bests.

Here’s how the competitions work.

The two competitions

There will be two separate competitions in 2026:

Evening 10 Series
This covers the club’s Evening 10 events, including the two 2-Up time trials. There are eight events in total, with each rider’s best five results counting towards the final standings.

Overall Time Trial Competition
This is the broader season-long competition, covering the Evening 10s as well as the club’s longer-standing and more varied events: Danehill, Laughton, Chailey and the Hill Climb. Again, each rider’s best five results will count.

To be eligible to win the Overall Time Trial Competition, riders must include at least two counting results from Danehill, Laughton, Chailey or the Hill Climb. That’s to make sure the competition supports the full TT calendar, not just the Evening 10s.

How the points work

The same points system applies across all eligible events.

Every rider earns:

• 1 point for starting
• 1 point for finishing

Additional performance points are awarded to the top five riders in each event:

• 1st place: 10 points
• 2nd place: 8 points
• 3rd place: 6 points
• 4th place: 4 points
• 5th place: 2 points

That means the maximum score from any one event is 12 points: 1 for starting, 1 for finishing and 10 for winning.

The system is deliberately straightforward. Turn up, ride, finish, and you’re on the board. Ride well, and you’ll move up it.

Evening 10 Series

The Evening 10 Series is based on the club’s eight Evening 10 events during the season, including the two 2-Up events.

Only your best five results will count, so you don’t need to ride every round to be competitive. That also gives a bit of breathing room for holidays, work, weather, mechanicals and those evenings when life gets in the way of pretending a 10-mile TT is a sensible leisure activity.

For the 2-Up events, both riders receive the points linked to their finishing position. These events count in exactly the same way as individual rides. Solo riders in the 2-Up events will be awarded a handicap of 7.5% of their time on a road bike and 5% of their time on a TT-bike.

Overall Time Trial Competition

The Overall Time Trial Competition brings together the wider club TT calendar.

Eligible events are:

• Evening 10s
• Danehill TT
• Laughton TT
• Chailey TT
• Hill Climb

As with the Evening 10 Series, your best five results will count.

However, to be eligible to win the Overall Competition, at least two of your counting results must come from Danehill, Laughton, Chailey or the Hill Climb. This is to encourage riders to support the bigger club events and try a mix of courses across the season.

Who can take part?

The competitions are open to Lewes Wanderers members, including second-claim members, provided riders are representing Lewes Wanderers in the relevant events.

What happens if there’s a tie?

If riders finish level on points, the tie-breakers will be applied in this order:

1. Most wins
2. Most second places
3. Most recent head-to-head result
4. Shared position, if still tied

Why we’re doing it

Time trialling is one of the great traditions of Lewes Wanderers, and this competition is designed to give the season a little extra focus.

It rewards the riders at the sharp end, but it also recognises the people who turn up regularly, support the events and keep the club scene alive.

So whether you’re chasing the win, chasing a PB, chasing a clubmate, or just chasing the finish line before your legs file a formal complaint, there’s something to ride for.

Get involved, bank some points, and let’s make it a properly competitive – and well-supported – season.
