I saw this press release on Felt's website and thought it was worthy of mention:

Felt Launches Tri-Centive Bonus Plan
6/1/2011
Irvine, CA – Felt Bicycles is very pleased to announce the creation and launch of Tri-Centive™, a multi-sport World Championship bonus plan specifically targeted to all age-group triathletes competing in this year’s Ironman 70.3 World Championships in Las Vegas, NV (September 11, 2011) and Ford Ironman World Championship in Kona, HI (October 8, 2011)

The Tri-Centive plan provides a cash incentive to every non-professional age-group category for both men and women, for each of the two events. Any age-group winner on a Felt bicycle at the Ironman 70.3 World Championships in Las Vegas, NV will be rewarded with a $500.00 USD bonus from Felt. Any age-group winner on a Felt at the Ford Ironman World Championships in Kona, HI will earn $1000.00 USD.

So cool....it's basically the same as Contingency in every other form of Motorsports. Jim Felt coming from Motocross is probably why they came up with this first.

I hope other companies catch on.

I think it is great that the love is getting spread around (financially) to the top age groupers... It should help make it a tiny bit less pricey to race Kona.

I talked with Felt's Doug Martin a couple weeks ago and he talked about it:

Not taking anything away from Felt, but without a ProTour team they have more to gain from this than other companies.

Worked out pretty well for the few that recieved this year's bonuses. More to come.
