Time trials

With base2race, we want things fast and easy. This is why we use lots of drop down pick lists rather typing too much. With Time trials, however, you want to be really accurate.

Time trials tell us to the second how well we are performing. I want to keep a long term record of these. I normally add them as Category C Races so they show up on the annual plan. Unfortunately, doing this obscures the real races. So we've added a new race category specifically for time trials.

To add a time trial just add a race to your annual plan. Set the Race category as TT and you've got a time trial.

Your time trials will appear both in your annual plan and in your week view, but are distinct from real races.
