TROFEU INTERNACIONAL CIUTAT DE BARCELONA 2015 - TIC BCN 2015
Both Club Orientació Catalunya and the City Council want to welcome you to Barcelona. We
are hoping you will have a pleasant stay amongst us and truly enjoy the races we are
preparing for you.

The TIC BCN trophy was born as a team competition in which a couple of foreign top level
national teams were invited, thus setting a stage where the senior and junior Catalan teams
could train and improve their technical abilities by competing against the best.

In 2006, the trophy coincided with the last event of the Catalan Cup. The 2008 edition saw
the presence of the English national team, and it was also when the competition was opened
for the first time to Catalan club teams. This year, on its 9th edition, we are preparing an event
open to everybody with two programmed races:

31/10/2015- Middle distance race at the seafront of Barcelona.

01/11/2015 - Long distance downtown City Race Euro Tour.

The winner of TIC BCN will come out of the sum of the timings obtained on the two days
race

each control there will be a clock so everyone can control the neutralized time. If any runner
punches the second control after 1’30” it will be added, upon arrival, the exceeded time

circulating on the streets, always respecting traffic rules and being respectful with
pedestrians.

a control.

the appealed control. Therefore, all runners must consider the opportunity to finish the race
