RACE CATEGORIES

We've added a couple of categories to accomodate the growing field of competitors and keep things interesting for every skill level. They are:

  • Solo Male
  • Solo Female
  • 2-Person Open
  • Male Team Open
  • Female Team Open
  • CoEd Team Open

The "2-Person Open" may be any gender combination. The "Team Open" categories may have anywhere from three to five people per team. The Entry fees are per team, not per person. Why did we do this? Well, we've all run into those last minute situations where someone bails on us for no good reason, or we just can't find enough crazy riding buddies who want to slug it out around the clock. So, you don't need to get five whole people if you don't want to. Three's enough for us. And hey, talk about bragging rights...

Class Combinations: Race Director reserves the right to combine any of the Team Open Classes if there are less than four teams registered in any category.
