FOUR STAGES.
ONE TEAM.

Participation is open to riders from any city. You do not need to belong to GCC or an invited club. Enter as a team of two or three riders; the captain completes one form with everyone’s details.

Registration closes November 5, 2026. No registrations are accepted after that date. Keep the same registered team members throughout the tour; an absence does not reduce the roster used to assess team completion.

Entry is free. Optional contributions of CAD 10, CAD 15 or CAD 20 are per team. Choosing CAD 0 has no effect on points, prize eligibility or draw chances.

You need a compatible smart trainer and MyWhoosh installed and ready to use. Please also install MyWhoosh Link and follow the setup and joining instructions in your rider email.

This is a community-run event organized by GCC and is not affiliated with MyWhoosh.

Routes and instructions will be emailed to every registered team member on November 7, 2026, five days before the first stage. Please provide a correct email address for each rider and check your spam folder.

If you do not receive the email, contact hello@gcclub.ca.

Individual: first place earns 100 points. Each subsequent place earns 5 fewer points, down to zero from 21st place.

Team: first place earns 120 points. Each subsequent place earns 5 fewer points, down to zero from 25th place.

The 30 completion points are additional to position points. Other eligible bonuses are added separately.

Points never become negative. A rider who does not finish receives no position or completion points for that stage. Individual ranking follows the official stage results; team ranking uses the time method below.

• Stage 1: the fastest registered team member’s time.
• Stage 2: the last registered team member’s time.
• Stage 3: the average time of all registered team members.
• Stage 4: the last registered team member’s time.

All registered team members must finish for the team to receive a stage ranking and position points. If at least two members finish, the team receives 30 completion points. The additional 20-point full-team bonus requires every registered member to finish.

An incomplete team does not receive position points. Riders who finish retain their individual points and eligible inclusion bonuses.

Individual GC

• +30: complete a stage.
• +50: complete all four stages (once, at the end of the tour).
• +10 per completed stage: women and riders under 16 on November 12, 2026. This is one shared bonus; a rider meeting both conditions receives +10, not +20.

Team GC

• +30 per stage: at least two registered members finish.
• +20 per stage: all registered members finish.
• +30: all registered members finish all four stages (once, at the end of the tour).
• Inclusion bonuses: each +10 bonus earned by an eligible woman or under-16 rider also contributes to their team’s total.

Individual position points and individual completion bonuses are not added to the team total. Team GC uses its own position points, completion bonuses and the inclusion bonuses described above.

Each stage offers two separate individual bonuses worth 5 points each. A rider may earn both in the same stage. A separate 10-point team bonus is also available. The criteria will be shared with registered riders on November 7, 2026.

Individual GC ties: first compare the number of completed stages, then the number of first places, second places and so on, and finally the placing in the last stage.

Team GC ties: first compare the number of stages completed by the full team, then the number of first places, second places and so on, and finally the team’s placing in the last stage.

A disconnect without a valid finishing result counts as an incomplete stage, unless a correction is supported by evidence. Report discrepancies to hello@gcclub.ca within 24 hours of results being published.

Team prizes: each member of the top four teams receives a USD 45 Lameda gift card.

Individual prizes: five CAD 20 Lameda gift cards go to the five highest-ranked individuals after excluding members of the four prize-winning teams.

Stage draws: one CAD 50 Lameda gift card per stage, drawn among riders who finish that stage. Previous draw winners are excluded from later draws, giving four unique winners. A draw winner may also receive a classification prize.

Final team and individual classification prizes are based on accumulated points; completing all four stages is not required.

Gift cards: there is no geographic eligibility restriction. All gift cards are from Lameda, have no minimum purchase, and are delivered by email. Values remain in the stated currency: USD or CAD.

Socks: the only geographically restricted prize. One pair goes to each of the 12 lowest-ranked Ottawa/Gatineau riders in the final Individual GC who complete all four stages. Winners must collect their socks in downtown Ottawa; the exact pickup location will be sent to them.

Weekly results and the Individual and Team General Classifications will be published on this event page during the tour.

Results are provisional for 24 hours after publication. Request corrections at hello@gcclub.ca, including the rider or team name, stage and supporting evidence.
