          containing specific information about the event as it appears on the draft
          calendar (available hereunder in this document). The organiser can make any
          necessary changes directly in the pre-filled PDF file. It must then be sent by
          email to the National Federation for approval.

          NAME
          In the event of any name change, the organiser must mention the name
          requested in the box provided.

          DATES
          The draft calendars are included here under for information only. Appearing
          on a draft calendar does not mean that the race is registered on the UCI
          calendar. Organisers must confirm the registration of their race by returning
          the required registration form to their National Federation.

          Any requests for a change of date may be submitted to the UCI via National
          Federations. A justification letter must accompany with these requests.

          If necessary, the UCI reserves the right to change the dates in order to avoid
          any competition between races which may be unfavourable to cycling.

          NEW EVENTS
          For registration of new events, extra forms can be obtained from the National
          Federation. Hyperlinks to blank registration forms for each of the disciplines
          can be found in the corresponding sections of this document. In accordance
          with the regulations, when registering a new race a file must be submitted
          (Article 1.2.009 hereafter). For road, this must reach the UCI at the latest on
          25th June (3 months prior to the Management Committee meeting) of the year
          before the first edition of the race, and for other disciplines at the latest on the
          same registration deadline set in Article 1.2.006. Nonetheless, the organiser
          is obliged to announce beforehand its intention to enter a new race to its
          National Federation who will send the organiser a blank registration form
          to fill in and return to their National Federation.

                1.2.009

                calendar, the organiser shall submit documentation including at
                least the following information:

                - type of race (discipline, speciality, format);
                - description of the course including total length (in km) and,
                  where applicable, that of stages and circuits;
                - the type and number of participating teams and/or riders’
                  categories wanted;
                - financial aspects (prizes, travel and subsistence expenses);
                - references concerning organisation.

                For the road, the documentation must be submitted to the UCI no

                deadline settled in Article 1.2.006 for the other disciplines.

          The UCI establishes, for each calendar and each class of race, a range of
          calendar fees as well as participation allowances and prize money. These
          amounts are described in the UCI Financial Obligations.
          You will find hyperlinks to the financial obligations for each discipline in the
          relevant sections later on in this document.

          ECONOMIC CLASSIFICATION
          The amounts of calendar fees and prizes will be adapted based on the
          economic situation of the country. Therefore, reference should always be
          made to the coefficients of the Economic Classification of the countries. This
          Classification could be reviewed during the year.

          RIGHT TO REGISTER
          The registration fee of every event is subdivided into 3 parts:

          1. UCI Calendar Fee
          In compliance with Article 1.2.012, the inclusion of a race on the international
          calendar shall be subject to the payment of a fee, called the calendar fee, the
          amount of which shall be set annually by the UCI Management Committee.

          This fee includes allowances (expenses and travel) for officials (International
          Commissaires and Doping Control Officers) appointed by the UCI and
          enrolment fee for each race on the international calendar. The accommodation
          expenses (room + breakfast) remain payable by each organiser. The total
          amount of these fees must be paid in Euros, within the deadlines described
          in the Article 1.2.012.
          PAYMENT:
             An invoice will be sent to organisers once the calendar is approved by the
             UCI Management Committee.
             The total amount of the fee must be paid by the organiser to the UCI no
             later than two months after the meeting of the Management Committee
             at which the calendar for the discipline in question is approved. The above
             deadline refers to the date on which the UCI account must be credited
             (Article 1.2.012).
             Only races that respect Article 1.2.012 of the UCI regulations will be
             registered on the calendar.
             In case of delay, a penalty of 100 Swiss Francs for each month started will
             automatically be applied. (Article 1.2.012).

REGISTRATION PROCEDURE FOR UCI CALENDARS               GENERALITIES CONCERNING ALL DISCIPLINES

          REGISTRATION REFUSAL
          The inclusion of the race on the calendar shall be refused if the previous
          year’s fee as well as the penalty, have not been paid one month prior
          to the meeting of the Management Committee at which the calendar in
          question is approved. Furthermore, a race registration shall be refused if the
          enrolment fees for previous races have not been paid or if the organiser does
          not honour its financial obligations with the UCI. This measure also applies
          to the new organiser of the race and, in general, to the organiser and/or race
          that the Management Committee considers to be the successor of another
          organiser or another race. (Article 1.2.012).

          INVITATION - ENROLMENT
          In accordance with Article 1.2.048, without prejudice to the provision

          be subject to prior authorisation by the UCI or, for a UCI WorldTour event, the
          Professional Cycling Council at the request of the National Federation of the
          organiser. If there is a change of date or if an event is cancelled, the organiser

          team classification based on the races on the international calendar other
          than those drawn up or expressly authorised by the UCI. Events conducted
          by an organiser who fails to comply with the preceding paragraph shall be
          deleted from the international calendar for the following year. For Mountain
          Bike and Cyclo-cross, a “Cup/Series” will be comprised of no more than
          eight rounds.

          FORBIDDEN RACES
          Article 1.2.019
          No licence holder may participate in an event that has not been included on
          a national, continental or world calendar or that has not been recognised by a
          National Federation, a Continental Confederation or the UCI.

          Depending on the circumstances, a National Federation and the UCI may
          grant special exceptions for particular races or events run in its own country.
          Particular races or events may consist of:

          - Events organised occasionally only and which do not belong to the organised
            sports movement;
          - Events whose format is not covered by the UCI regulations.

          Any National Federation intending to grant a special exception must submit
          its reasoned request to the UCI administration at the beginning of the season
          and at least two months before the event in question. The decision of the UCI
          is final and shall not be subject to appeal.

          CLASSIFICATION
          The UCI Management Committee and UCI Road Commission reserve the right
          to change the classification of races based on the level of participation and
          the quality of the organisation of races. The final approval for the calendar will
          be given at the Management Committee meeting taking place in September.

          HOW MUCH DOES IT COST FOR ROAD?
          FINANCIAL OBLIGATIONS
          Following is a hyperlink to the Road financial obligations for 2019 with the
          amounts regarding calendar fees, participation allowances and prize money.

          CYCLISTES PROFESSIONNELS ASSOCIES (CPA)
          For the events on the UCI WorldTour calendar and the HC and class 1 events in
          the UCI Continental Circuits, the contribution of athletes to the Solidarity Fund
          for Professional Riders, is 7% of the total of prizes actually distributed. This
          amount will be billed to the paying body (e.g. National Federation, organiser,
          riders’ association, etc) by the CPA.

          ROAD REGISTRATION FORMS
          Each form must include only one race, even if several races open to different
          categories take place on the same day at the same venue.

          EXISTING EVENTS IN 2018
          For each of his events, the organiser receives a pre-filled form in PDF with
          specific information about the event as it appears on the draft calendar
          available in this document.

          NEW EVENTS
          For registration of new events, extra forms can be obtained from the National
          Federation.

          For National Federations, a blank registration form, identical for all Road
          events, is available for download on this link. It is to be used exclusively for
          the registration of new events.

          UCI WORLDTOUR CALENDAR
          The calendar of UCI WorldTour events is drawn up by the Professional Cycling
          Council, in line with the provisions concerning the UCI WorldTour in Part II,
          section XV. (Article 1.2.005).

          REGISTRATION
          This calendar is reserved for UCI WorldTour events only. The organisers of
          these events will receive the information regarding the registration of their
          event directly from the UCI WorldTour coordinator.

          DATES
          The dates of the UCI WorldTour events are mentioned, for information, on the
          corresponding continental circuits’ draft calendars.

          This is a project established by the UCI Road Commission.
          Organisers of Class 2 events propose, freely and in agreement with their
          National Federation, the dates of their events. Nonetheless, the UCI reserves
          the right to change the proposed dates in order to avoid competition between
          races, which could be unfavourable to cycling.

          UNDER 23 LABEL
          The organisers of Class 2 races, may ask the UCI for the Under 23 label, thus
          limiting the access of their race to athletes Under 23.

          Requests to obtain the Under 23 label must be submitted to the UCI via
          National Federations.

          CLASSIFICATION
          The class of the competition determines the points awarded to the participants
          as per the scale stated in the UCI regulations (Title 3, Chapter III).

          As a reminder, it is possible to specify on the registration form the type of class
          (CC, CL1, CL2, Nat) for each specialisation. The races at a national level (Nat.)
          can be registered as a complement to the UCI competitions.

          The evaluation of the competitions registered in the 2018-2019 calendar
          determines the class in which they will be registered for 2019-2020 season (as
          per art. 3.8.003).
          Any event for which points counting for the UCI Track Classification are
          awarded will need to respect the formats and/or minimal distances as
          stipulated in the UCI Regulations, failing this, points will not be awarded.

          With regard to the minimum criteria for categories, if several categories
          participate in the same race, the category of the majority of participants will
          be taken into account only.

          Younger athletes or masters can participate in elite races to expand the bunch.
          Nevertheless, riders younger than 18 years old will not score UCI points and
          must not be taken into account in the analysis of the minimum number of
          participating nations (article 3.8.003). 18-year-olds junior riders will score UCI
          points in elite ranking. In any case, all athletes must be included in the results.

          For the registration of Six Days type of event, the registered event shall be
          Madison (for example Men Elite Madison); each indidivudal event of that
          category shall not be registered.

          For others tournament, different from the format as regulated by the UCI, (for
          example Sprinter’s tournament on several days) as stipulated in art. 3.3.005,
          points will be awarded according to the overall standings of the speciality
          (for example individual sprint). If the tournament is made of several events
          (Sprint and Keirin), the event which will award the UCI points shall be clearly
          identified on the program of the competition and communicated to the UCI
          Track Department (track@uci.ch).

          We remind that as per art. 3.3.003, if more than 50% of the riders per category
          are being invited, the awarded points will be of Class 2 points scale.

          For your information, please find hereafter two examples to illustrate how
          criteria are taken into account to classify an event.

          CLASS 1 EVENT
          This class event must fulfil the following criteria:

            5 PARTICIPATING NATIONS
          The number of nations considered is the event among the programme in which
          the maximum of nations are represented. In terms of points granted to riders,
          any events in the programme where at least 5 nations are competing, riders
          will be awarded points according to the scale provided for a class 1 event.

          If some events in the programme have only 3 or 4 nations at the start, riders
          will be awarded points according to the scale provided for a class 2 event.

          Finally, if some events in the programme have between 1 to 2 nations at
          the start, no points will be awarded to riders competing. In the case when
          categories are combined within one race, the nations of the category mostly
          represented will be considered only.

          Attention: This analysis must be made on the basis of the riders participating
          in the specific category of the event only (for example a Scratch race Men
          Elite, nations of elite riders will be taken into account only).

            EVENTS FOR MEN ELITE
          plus 3 other categories to be chosen from Women Elite, Men or Women U23,
          Men or Women Junior, or Para-cycling.

          competition’s programme take into account all events organised, even
          national event or those with one country represented at the start. Different
          categories can be combined in one race. Nevertheless, the category of the
          majority of participants will be taken into account only. Participants belonging
          to another category must be included in the results but will not receive UCI
          points.

            5 COMPETITIONS MINIMUM
          (event part of the World Championships programme in one category).
          The requirement of competitions take into account any event’s type
          represented at the World Championships, regardless of the number of nations
          at the start of those events.

             MEN ELITE                    Points race (8 nations at the start)
                                            eligible for class 1 points
             WOMEN ELITE                  Sprint (3 nations at the start)
                                            eligible for class 2 points

                                            eligible for class 1 points

             With 4 categories, a maximum of 8 nations in one event and 5 competitions, such an event
             would be classified in class 1.

          (event part of the World Championships programme in one category).
          The requirement of competitions take into account any event’s type
          represented at the World Championships, regardless of the number of nations
          at the start of those events.

             Example of possible minimum programme for a class 2 event

             MEN ELITE          Keirin (5 nations at the start)
                                  eligible for class 2 points (even with 5 nations
                                represented, the registered class of the event
                                determines the maximum applicable points scale).
             WOMEN ELITE        Sprint (2 nations at the start)
                                 not eligible for points

             With 2 categories, a maximum of 5 nations in one event and 2 competi-
             tions, such an event would be classified in class 2.
