Hello everybody,

I wrote a banked time calculator that tells you your time in hand during the brevet.  The first version was released in 2016, and included rules for ACP events.  There were other versions for 84 hour PBP and straight time.    It was a simple program and it worked.

I've overhauled the banked time calculator:
  • New interface with friendlier display - seconds. minutes & seconds, or hours and minutes, depending upon how much time you have in hand.
  • Trend indicator to tell you whether or not you're putting time in the bank.
  • One app for all events, configurable from your phone or computer
The calculator supports the following control time close rules:
  • ACP 90 hour ( Most American ACP events)
  • PBP 90, 84, and 80 hour close time (2019 brevet cards)
  • Straight time 90 hours / 1200k
  • LEL-125 hour time limit, final course length ( 1540km )
  • RUSA Permanent Rules, including very long brevets.
This data field will run on any Garmin Edge from the last few years.

Thanks very much to Brian Feinberg for adding support for multiple close times in one app, and to Mario Claussnitzer for field testing.



Bonne Route,
Robert

For those of you doing LEL, I've updated the tables to reflect the new 128:20 time limit.
