Clásica Internacional de Alcobendas
Enable an agent to recognise Clásica Internacional de Alcobendas, distinguish its editions and changing race formats, and assess which historical claims and results are supported.
Research draft, second pass
A second pass drafted this model: the structure a model of this thing needs, and what is known about it in the world. The line under this one says how the second half was obtained - researched against sources, or recalled without web access, in which case nothing here was read anywhere and every claim is a lead to verify. Unreviewed either way.

Alcobendas race identity Recognise the registered road race across historical titles while preserving boundaries with neighbouring events.
Historical titles
Connect source-attested names to the event and their periods of use.
Alcobendas and Villalba title continuity
A contemporary 2008 report uses an expanded title mentioning Alcobendas and Collado Villalba; establish its relationship to the registered name through edition evidence. [Stage report](https://autobus.cyclingnews.com/road.php?id=road%2F2008%2Fmay08%2Falcobendas08%2Falcobendas082)
- Which organiser or federation records connect the expanded Villalba title to Clásica Internacional de Alcobendas? provenance
- For which editions was each title used, and was it an official title or reporting shorthand? boundary
Event lineage boundaries
Separate the recurring race from individual editions and unrelated local competitions.
Lineage versus shared locality
Require evidence of continuity before attaching another Alcobendas cycling competition to this registry entry.
- Does the reference denote this road race, one of its editions, or a separate Alcobendas competition? definition
- What continuity evidence would justify attaching a later similarly named race to this lineage? boundary
Edition time and format Represent when the race occurred and how each edition organised competition.
Edition calendar
Track actual and announced dates, edition numbering and gaps.
Held editions and archival gaps
Treat an edition's occurrence and its calendar boundaries as separately evidenced claims.
- Which dated records establish that each claimed edition actually took place? provenance
- For a missing year, is there evidence of cancellation or only an absence of located results? boundary
Stage and day structure
Describe one-day or stage-race organisation without equating stages with days.
Stages, sectors and duration
The 2008 final report describes morning and afternoon sectors on the final day; preserve both calendar scheduling and the source's sporting terminology. [Final-race report](https://as.com/ciclismo/2008/05/12/mas_ciclismo/1210596183_850215.html)
- How many race days, stages and sectors did the edition have, and how did its regulations name them? measurement
- Which edition first changed from a one-day competition to a stage race? boundary
Course and sporting outcome Connect the edition's geographic course to participation and classifications.
Edition route
Identify stage endpoints, distance and route changes with edition-specific evidence.
Route beyond Alcobendas
The 2008 second stage was reported as Alovera to Azuqueca de Henares, demonstrating why the course cannot be inferred solely from the race title. [Stage report](https://autobus.cyclingnews.com/road.php?id=road%2F2008%2Fmay08%2Falcobendas08%2Falcobendas082)
- What were the documented start, finish and distance of each stage or sector? measurement
- Does the available itinerary describe the announced course or the course actually raced? provenance
Entrants and classifications
Associate riders and teams with starts, finishes and edition-specific sporting outcomes.
Stage versus overall results
Keep entry lists, actual starters, stage placings and overall classifications distinct, with team affiliation attached to the edition.
- Which riders actually started, and which teams did they represent in this edition? provenance
- What timing, bonuses, penalties and tie-breaking rules produced the final overall classification? definition
- Is the cited result a stage placing, an overall placing or another classification? boundary
Authority and historical state Establish responsibility for the race and the evidence supporting its historical status.
Organising and sanctioning
Attribute institutional roles and sporting classification separately for each edition.
Edition-specific authority
Record who organised, sanctioned, hosted and supported each edition without transferring those roles across its entire history.
- Which records distinguish the race organiser from municipal hosts, sponsors and the sanctioning federation? provenance
- Which circuit and category applied to this edition, and what entry conditions followed from them? definition
Evidence and cessation
Manage conflicting historical accounts and qualify conclusions about the event's lifecycle.
Historical status and corrections
Separate the last documented edition from a documented decision to discontinue the race, and preserve the authority and date of result corrections.
- What evidence establishes cessation, suspension or revival beyond the latest located race result? provenance
- When accounts disagree, which claim can be accepted and which must remain explicitly unresolved? action
- If a source attributes discontinuation to funding or organisational causes, who made that claim and what supports it? provenance
Evidence and external alignment What the world already says about this thing, gathered so the model can be checked against it.

What it is Filled
The Clásica Internacional de Alcobendas was a men's road cycling stage race based in Alcobendas, in Spain's Community of Madrid.
In scope
- Continuity of the Alcobendas race across historical names and editions
- Edition dates, interruptions and evidence of cessation or revival
- Edition-specific stages, sectors, routes and classifications
- Riders, teams and responsible organisations in their event roles
- Source-backed results and unresolved historical discrepancies
Out of scope
- Alcobendas as a municipality and its general history
- Rider biographies and team histories beyond participation in this race
- Road cycling rules except those applicable to a documented edition
- Other Alcobendas cycling events, including cyclocross competitions
- Independent models of the UCI Europe Tour, organisers and sponsors
Why it exists Filled
Enable an agent to recognise Clásica Internacional de Alcobendas, distinguish its editions and changing race formats, and assess which historical claims and results are supported.
Distinguishing features Filled
- Identify a road cycling race associated with Alcobendas; a shared town name does not establish identity with an Alcobendas cyclocross event.
- Treat the registry entry as a recurring event lineage, while identifying a particular running by its year and documented edition number.
- Do not infer a one-day format from 'Clásica': the 2008 race had numbered stages across May 10-11. [Contemporary stage report](https://autobus.cyclingnews.com/road.php?id=road%2F2008%2Fmay08%2Falcobendas08%2Falcobendas082)
- Test expanded titles mentioning Collado Villalba against edition evidence before accepting them as historical names of this registry entry.
- Distinguish the overall winner from individual stage winners; contemporary reporting separates these outcomes for 2008. [Final-race report](https://as.com/ciclismo/2008/05/12/mas_ciclismo/1210596183_850215.html)
What robots and AI may and may not do Filled
Must not
- Present the race as current or invent editions.
- Repeat doping allegations beyond official sanctions.
- Alter or misattribute historical results.
Only with a human decision
- Correcting historical results after a sanction or appeal.
May
- Report the race's editions and results from official archives.
- State that the race is no longer held when describing it, after checking the latest records.
Moral aspects Filled
- Historical results still affect riders' reputations.
- Records of defunct races are easily lost, so accuracy matters.
Who is affected
- Former riders
- Fans and historians
- The host town
Owners Filled
Steward
Its former organizer; the national cycling federation holds the official results.
Master systems
- National cycling federation results records
