Looking for a different kind of HPV event?

Something that involves some cycling, Mountain bike riding and running?

Then I think the CCHPVCC Quadrathon is for you!

How does it work?

There are 4 different events using different skill sets that make up the Quadrathon.

Event 1- Run- relay-

  • 4 laps of top loop
  • minimum distance travelled by each runner is 1/2 lap
  • minimum of 4 runners.

Event 2- Bicycle Time Trial

  • 3 or 4 Big Laps with 4 riders per team and team time taken off the sixth wheel to finish.

Event 3 – MTB – relay

  • track on the infield of the Criterium track
  • 4 laps
  • 4 riders
  • Riders can share one bike only if they wish.

Event 4 – HPV & Cyclists

  • 2 hour event on top loop
  • all team members must have a turn in the HPV
  • points are awarded for each cyclist and the HPV for each lap completed provided they are in a tight bunch when they cross the line. For example, a HPV and 4 cyclists crossing the line together would score 5 points, but a HPV 30 metres in front of 4 cyclists would score 1 point.

Teams would comprise a minimum of 4 and a maximum of 8 riders
Categories are:

  • Primary
  • Junior Secondary (up to Year 9)
  • Senior Secondary (up to Year 12)
  • Secondary Female
  • Community

No restrictions on male/female except for Secondary Female

Team entry cost of $12 per team
Each team must provide a timer/scorer.

Every team must enter every event, and the winner is the one who records the best score in total.
