Riders Shield (awarded 2016 - 2023)

Points
3 points for leading a ride
2 points for A 2nd RL &/or Lanterne Rouge
1 point for joining a club ride

Also don’t forget The Swan's TT Challenge Cup

We run a rider competition throughout the year. It adds an extra bit of fun and encourages members to help out and make the most of the club. All members are eligible to take part and are automatically enrolled into the competition (though if you don't want to be, please let us know).

The competition starts from the date of the AGM (April) and runs for 12 months.

What do I win?

The winner will have their name engraved on our large trophy. They'll also receive a smaller trophy to keep and £25 worth of vouchers.

How are points awarded?

Points are awarded for every club ride using the scoring system on this page. You must have your name on the ride sheet to be counted and it must be written legibly so we can read it otherwise we can't award the points. The Ride Coordinator's decision on such matters are final!
