Interesting. I only do a few races a year so wouldn’t figure.
Anyway, reminds me I need to sign up for north road hard riders, favourite race of the year really.

It's not about doing a lot of races to get points, it's about the quality of the field and your place in it in whichever races you do. As a crude example, if you win the national 25 championship, you'll be higher in the rankings than somebody who wins several local open 25s, because beating all the best short distance testers in the country once trumps beating your local competitors every week if none of them is rated in the top 10 nationally.

I believe the CTT said they’d be introducing a national ranking system this year after trialling it behind the scenes last season. I haven’t looked into it at all, so not sure if it helps with what you want, but I would assume it would benefit riders who perform consistently across all types of courses?
