GENERAL INFO:
We continue to operate under recommended COVID guidelines for the health and safety of our members.
To this end, we are limiting registration, using alternative starting methods, and maintaining social distancing.
For XC#2, we will be running QUAD STARTS. There will be a 4-rider start box at the start line, and we will send out 4 people at a time with 1-minute gaps between each group. The selection will be randomized within the 3 ability categories.
Lambateurs have a separate event. It is a group adventure ride and is not timed. Parents are encouraged to come and ride with the little rippers (must be a club member).
REMINDER! If you have a race number plate that you were issued at XC#1, you will have the same number and you must bring it with you.
