History

The event started in 2009 with only European nations. In 2017 USA,[2][3] Argentina and Australia, as the first nations outside Europe, participated in the event. In 2018, Canada joined and participated for their first time.

The scoring for the event works on the position system, i.e. first place is awarded one point, second place two, etc. Each rider races twice. The worst score of three races is dropped, and the lowest combined score wins.
