Duo Normand

Duo Normand identity anchor

A participating professional team's event page describes Duo Normand as a two-rider team time trial held at Marigny in Manche. This supports the core identity without establishing rules for every edition.

1. Which evidence connects the candidate event to the named Duo Normand at Marigny? definition
2. Does the record describe the continuing event, one edition or a competition within an edition? boundary

Continuity needs edition evidence

Record claimed edition numbers and relationships to earlier staging separately from calendar years; a gap or renewed announcement does not by itself prove termination or a new event.

1. Which dated records establish that each claimed edition actually took place? provenance
2. How does the responsible organiser describe continuity after any interruption or reorganisation? boundary

Programme and occurrence

Attach dates, local times and staging states to the relevant edition and distinguish registration, rider starts and competition completion.

1. What are the latest authorised dates and start windows, with calendar, timezone and precision? measurement
2. Which evidence confirms completion, cancellation, postponement or interruption rather than merely an announced schedule? provenance

Edition authority chain

Record the organiser, relevant sanctioning body and officials for each edition without assuming historical affiliations or classifications remain applicable.

1. Who has authority over entry acceptance, course changes and sporting decisions for this edition? provenance
2. Which dated regulation or decision should an agent follow when event pages and federation records disagree? action

Two-rider entry identity

Link both riders to the pair's entry identifier and record authorised changes; distinguish their personal or club identities from the identity of the competing pair.

1. Which two riders were entered, which started and which are credited in the published result? provenance
2. Under what conditions may a rider be substituted, and who must authorise the change? action

Edition-specific pair eligibility

Treat category labels, licence requirements, age limits and permitted pair combinations as sourced rules rather than inferring them from older start lists.

1. Which category definitions and rider requirements govern this pair's admission? definition
2. What evidence is still needed before the agent can conclude that the pair is eligible? action

Route is not a fixed identity

The organiser's website describes a 50.8 km route as shorter and more technical than its predecessor, supporting treatment of the course as edition-dependent. Source: [Duo Normand organiser website](https://www.duonormand.com/en/home/).

1. Which route map, distance and start/finish locations apply to the selected edition and category? measurement
2. Was the published course subsequently shortened, diverted or replaced, and which source records that change? provenance

Cooperation and separation rules

An agent must establish the applicable rules for riding together, overtaking, external assistance and separation after a mechanical problem or incident.

1. What do the edition's rules permit between partners and prohibit between different pairs? boundary
2. What must the pair do if one rider cannot continue or the riders become separated? action

Pair clock rule

Record scheduled and actual starts where relevant, the rule determining the pair's finish time, timing precision and adjustments; do not assume that the first or second rider necessarily controls the clock.

1. Which start reference and rider-crossing condition define the pair's official elapsed time? measurement
2. How are late starts, incomplete pairs, timing failures and penalties reflected in the result? definition

Qualified result claims

Attribute each ranking to its competition, category, publication version and status; claims about winners or records require a defined comparison set.

1. Which authorised result version establishes the pair's time, rank and classification status? provenance
2. Do course, distance, timing and category differences permit the proposed comparison or record claim? boundary
3. How should an agent update a reported outcome when a correction or adjudication changes the classification? action
