Group Racing
In a group race, you compete against one to seven other exercisers to reach a goal
distance. The progress of each person in the race is shown on your console. This section
describes how you can start a race, and how you can join a race being started by someone
on another 700 series cycle.
To start a group race:
1. Get on the 700C Cycle and 700R Recumbent Cycle and start pedaling to activate the
console.
2. Press the Advanced Options key. If you press a key somewhere else on the console, an
arrow will point toward the program keys, instructing you to select one. Press Advanced
Options until the top display reads "Group Race," then press Enter.
3. The display will show the default workout length. You can change this using the up and
down arrow keys, or use the keypad to type the number of minutes you want to work out.
You should enter a time that's long enough to reach the goal distance for the race, which
you'll set later. It's all right if the workout length is too long for the race, but it shouldn't be
too short. If you try to enter a time longer than the maximum for the 700 series cycle, it
won't accept your entry. Press Enter.
4. Select the goal distance for the race. Use the arrow keys to raise or lower the value
shown. Any other exerciser can also press Advanced Options until he or she is in Group
Race mode, then adjust the goal distance. When any one of the people in Group Race
mode presses Enter, the goal is set and the countdown starts.
5. During the countdown phase, any cycler can join the race in one of two ways:
• Press Advanced Options until he or she is in Group Race mode, then press Enter.
• If an unused 700 series cycle is announcing the race, someone can get on it and
press Enter (with external power only).
Even if you first started the race, if someone else pressed Enter to set the goal, you
must now press Enter to join the race.
If you change your mind about being in the race after you press Enter, press Clear
during the countdown to drop out.
The countdown starts from ten seconds; each time another racer joins, the countdown
resets to ten seconds. When ten seconds goes by with no more racers joining, the race
begins.
6. Enjoy the race.
