TT's don't count towards upgrade points on the road, as far as I know. So if
you're < 30 and you're a time trial specialist (or a triathlete who only
occasionally does a real TT), you will forever be stuck in the lower cats.
Fair? I don't know. Maybe TTs need their own categories, or it should just
be "senior men/women" without cats.
