ABR Masters 50+ Category Update:

This winter the WIIL Association voted to include both Men 50-54 and Men 55-59 age classes for the 2009 MATTS, TOI/W and ROTY Points Series. Thus, you'll notice in our results that we've separated the Men 50+ into those two categories so that riders receive their hard-earned points! 

If riders in the 55-59 age category prefer to race "up" in the younger class then please send us an email at abdcycling@gmail.com and we'll make the change.

The official statement on the change is as follows:

"Men 50-54 and 55-59 will race together in Crits and road races as they have for years.

For two person both riders must be minimum age. Time and Place will be in age class of youngest rider. (ex. 50 & 54 age riders will be in 50+ class), (ex. 50 & 56 age riders will be in 50+ class), (ex. 55 & 59 age riders will be in 55+ class.)"
