GENERAL INFO:

Transition opens at 6:00am for Draft Legal, at 6:45 for Classic and Relay Racers, and at 10:00am for Mixed Team Relays, with 30 minutes of swim warm-up available. The complete race schedule can be found on our website.
Transition closes at 6:45am for DL, at 9:00am for Classic and Relay Racers, and at 11:45 for Mixed Team Relays.
The men and womens DL has been delayed by 15 minutes, in order to start post-sunrise.
If you are racing draft legal, no aero or TT bikes allowed, only road bikes. Please remove any aero bars. This race is meant for more advanced racers, so if you would like to transfer your registration, feel free to send us an email!
On all bikes: NO mirrors or glass of any kind are allowed
Draft-legal rules apply for the Mixed Team Relay, so no TT bikes allowed. The lap-out rule won't be enforced, so if you get lapped, you can still finish.
There will be a coaches/captains meeting at 6:45 AM before the Draft Legal race to cover rules and sportsmanship.
Water temperature is expected to be around 60^0F, so we recommend wearing wetsuits. USAT wetsuit guidelines are found here.
