2015 On-Site Registration Procedures

Every Athlete Must Check In

Once you get to the race site please park your car and head to the registration area down the hill from transition area to complete these steps in order. You are welcome to check your bike into the transition area first. Please see information below on your specific racking system.

STEP 1

Look for your name on the alphabetical race list and find your race#.

STEP 2

Sign and date and put your race # on your waiver (even if you filled out on-line). If you have to pick up a kit for a friend have them print the waiver below and sign it - to take with you to registration. We can not release a kit without a signed waiver.

STEP 3

Hand in completed waiver at the next station where you will pick up your race credential envelope . The envelope has a contents list and instructions on it.

STEP 4

After you get your envelope, check the contents and then proceed to pick up your t-shirt. There are 3 things in your envelope 1- race bib, 2-bike stickers 3-post race food wristband.

STEP 5

T-shirt pick up (look at your envelope label to see what you selected)

STEP 6

Timing chip pick up located at the end of registration. Timing Chips will only be given out on race day. So if Sprint athletes pick up their race kits on Saturday then please come back pre race Sunday to pick up your chip.

Relay Teams- please have all team members with you when picking up your kit. Each team member must complete and hand in a signed waiver prior to receiving race credentials or t-shirts. If this is not possible then print off the waiver and have your partner(s) sign it so you can successfully complete registration. Please click here for specific relay race instructions.
