This is another e-mail from Daniel. In this one, he explains how the
starting spots for each conference is determined.

| | Allocation of start spots
The field limits for the road race and criterium have been set at
169 and 127, respectively. I have emailed each conference director
their conference’s allocation of start spots. Generally, speaking,
start spots are allocated to each conference based on the
percentage of Collegiate Cycling licensed riders who race in that
conference.
This year, the allocations were completed based on the number of
riders in each division (see Rule 11.2). (In previous years, the
same allocation was done for both Division I and Division II)
For instance, under the old rules, if your conference had 10% of
the total number of collegiate riders, your conference would have
received approximately 10% of the start spots in each of the
Division I and Division II races. However this year, if your
conference has 10% of the total number of collegiate riders, but
that total breaks down into 5% of Division I riders and 20% of
Division II riders, your conference will receive approximately 5%
of the Division I start spots and 20% of the Division II start spots.
As in the past, your conference director is responsible for
allocating your conference’s start spots in a reasonable manner
among the teams and riders of your conference.
Finally, at the start line, the order of call-up of individual
riders has been clarified (see Rule 11.3.2).
