De assistent die de regels simpel uitlegt.

Results are measured either by finishing order at the line, or by time (time trial, pursuit). In a stage race, the general classification sums each rider's time across all stages, with the lowest total leading. Secondary classifications (points, mountains) award points at specific spots (sprints, summits) according to the event's regulations.

Samenvatting

Cycling covers several competitive disciplines on a bike: road, track, mountain bike, BMX and cyclo-cross. Depending on the discipline, the goal is either to cover a distance as fast as possible or to finish best placed within a pack of riders. It is both an individual and a team sport, where team tactics matter greatly on the road.

Doel

Cross the finish line ahead of opponents, or set the best time over the required distance depending on the race format.
