Gorge Roubaix Category Question

Thanks everybody. I agree the website isn't particularly ambiguous, I'm just surprised that the 5's and Master 5's were cut. Last year those look like some of the larger fields, seems unusual to cut one of the largest money-makers to your race. I suppose the goal could be smaller fields or "safer" packs...

Cheers,
Erik

The categorization looks clear on the website. 3's and 4's race together but are scored separately and only 3's get prizes. All 40+ regardless of category race together.

Also, $40 per race with day of registration. Wow.

As clear as mud considering that I asked Gorge Roubaix via Facebook if Masters would be scored together several months ago and the response was "Yes all Masters racing together that are 40+ then score out the 3/4 masters separately." If it is on http://www.gorgeroubaix.com/gorge-roubaix-race/ I can't find it.

It looks pretty clear here:

Hope that clears it up for you.

I didn't race the Gorge Roubaix last year, looking to do it this year but have a question about the categories. I emailed the promoter but haven't got a response.
Are the categories different this year? Looks like Men 3/4 combined rather than 4/5 and 1/2 and 3. The Masters category, also, looks to be combined and the Masters 4/5 from last year dropped. Just trying to sort out registration for our teammates as to who will race masters, which categories, etc.
Thanks for any info! Erik

I didn't race the Gorge Roubaix last year, looking to do it this year but have a question about the categories. I emailed the promoter but haven't got a response.

Are the categories different this year?
Looks like Men 3/4 combined rather than 4/5 and 1/2 and 3. The Masters category, also, looks to be combined and the Masters 4/5 from last year dropped. Just trying to sort out registration for our teammates as to who will race masters, which categories, etc.

Thanks for any info!
