Etc. (any further 5-year category for which riders have entered)
Age Groups applicable to the TREK UCI Gravel World Series are defined by the rider’s age on December 31st of the year of the qualifier event. Riders who qualify past the World Championships for next year’s World Championships and change age group in the following year will automatically take their qualification to the next age group so don’t need to qualify again in their new age group in the year of the World Championships. As per the regulations applied for the UCI Gravel World Championships, medals and titles will be awarded for men and/or women as soon as 1 rider is registered in the respective 5-year age category.
Race Numbers
Coloured bib numbers are required to distinguish competitors in each age group, and not to indicate the start group; different bib colours must thus be applied for different age groups, even if they are starting together, as per the TREK UCI Gravel World Series visual guidelines.
Race numbers will be provided by the organization. Numbers must not be folded or modified and must clearly display the advertiser’s logo. It is the rider’s responsibility to ensure that their race numbers are readable. Riders whose numbers are unreadable at the finish may not get a placing and may forfeit their prizes.
Number Placement
The bib numbers are to be placed on the back of the jersey and on the left side (please see image below)
