3) Scratch race
(5km)
4) Individual pursuit:

1.1 Any rider failing to attempt to start in one of the events shall
not be allowed to take part in the sub-sequent events but shall be
considered to have abandoned the competition. He shall therefore
figure last in the final classification with the provision “DNF” (did
not finish).

updated in increasing order after each event. The winner shall be the
rider who has obtained the lowest total of rankings.

Points Race shall be awarded the ranking of the last available place
at that time plus a penalty ranking of 10 points.
In the case of the Scratch Race, any rider not finishing due to a
fall / recognised mishap, or due to the fact that they can not return
to the track in the final kilometre, shall be awarded the ranking of
the last available place for that event.
1.4 In the event of a tie, the best rider shall be determined by the
lowest accumulated time of the Time trial, Flying 200 and Individual
pursuit events.
1.5 For masters categories, there shall be a minimum of 6 starters.
If less than 6 starters enter the omnium, then the competitors
concerned shall compete in a younger age category.
