Rules:
1) Helmets are mandatory during the ride
2) Tops are required for the ride and run portions of the event
3) Numbers must be worn at the front when crossing the finish line. If the time keepers cannot see your number,
you may miss out on having a finish time.
4) Drafting is allowed due to the tight, short course
5) Count your own laps on the ride! Our volunteers are not responsible for counting your laps, only noting down
your numbers to be sure you have completed the three laps that are required.
6) Smile and have a good time! Any aggressive or disrespectful behaviour will result in Susy’s wrath!
