0) You are responsible for yourself!
1) Follow the rules and laws of the road. You will be traveling on public roads that will not be closed in any way. If you see a stop sign, please stop, etc. etc. etc.
2) Wear a helmet while on course.
3) There will be one official checkpoint in the race this year. At approximately mile 55 we will have a checkpoint. At this point, and at only this point you can get outside assistance/help. There also are a couple of convenience stores to pick up water/chips/etc. Unfortunately the roller dogs are in short supply, so if you want a crappy hot dog you might just want to throw one in your jersey pocket. The course will pass within a couple of miles of two other towns, but will not pass anything really useful. So, have enough water and food!
4) Carry enough water and food!
5) You are responsible for yourself!
6) Ride within yourself. Watch your speed if you need to on the downhills. There are some long and very very fast descents. It's fun to bomb them, but be prepared to deal with loose gravel, washboard, oncoming tractors etc. Also, when you are climbing up a hill, it's probably smart to not be on the left side of the road. There isn't much traffic on these roads, but be smart.
7) You must have a computer or some means of tracking your progress (in miles).
8) Have some sort of small (or large) front and rear (red) lights. It doesn't have to be so you can see, but you want to be seen.
9) You are responsible for yourself!
10) Don't litter. Respect that we're riding on public roads.
11) Watch out for dogs, chickens, and livestock!
12) Have fun!!!
We will be starting at 7:30 am in Colvill Park in Red Wing, MN. You will get the cue sheets for the first half of the race at registration. We will publish the cut-off times to get to the checkpoint in Zumbro Falls and to finish.
I think I got most of the big ones. Please feel free to ask any questions as we get closer to the race... only a little over a month away!

Are you doing a waiting list in case of cancelations?
Have a great ride, regardless.

Looking forward to round 3 of this wonderful spring classic!
JN - We got flooded on the last day of open registration, so we're still actually above what was going to be our cut-off limit. If we drop below that line, we'll add people from the waiting list (but that list is long). Sorry for those who missed the "cut". The course will be posted after the race so tracks can be retraced.
I thought I missed the race or something. good to know that i am a month early. Oops.
scarpe Hogan distances are anything from 10Km to 50Km through constant ascending and descending routes. Unlike hiking boots and other running shoes, which although are made for mountain terrain, hogan donna emphasize on light weight and flexibility. Keeping in line with Hogan scarpe uomo that an extra pound on the foot equals 5 on the back, Hogan uomo augurs better than general purpose shoes.
