Racing for lardy boys?
Hello all. Does anyone know of a road bike race or time trial that instead of classifying riders by age, one that riders are selected into groups by weight?
I mean, if this isnt done at the moment, why not? Could have a set of scales at the signing on and finish line to measure both bike and rider. Its something I'd be keen on doing, though its unlikely I'd win unless it was a 200m sprint 
Anyway, just thought I'd ask. Thanks.

It's done quite a lot in America where they have a clydesdale class ( but they would, wouldn't they).
I wasn't aware Ben and Jerries actively sponsored larger sportsmen and women? Where do I apply?
See You Next Tuesday.
Ben and Jerrys could sponsor you
You could do Downhill MTB racing or Track Sprinting
People that do those type of events are usually quite large
dont know of one, but you could always start your own
