* NEW & VERY IMPORTANT! *
Due to the amount of space available at the 24 hour
venue and the growth of our event, there will, for the
first time, be a cap on the number of participants allowed
to register. We will not be able to accept more than
900 entries this year. Thank you for helping us create
such a successful race.
|
| |
The "Round the Clock" 24 hour event is a team relay
mountain bike race, beginning at noon on Saturday and
ending at noon on Sunday. Teams compete for medals,
prizes and bragging rights.
Plan your Memorial Day weekend now and make the first 3 day weekend of the
summer seriously memorable. We'll give you a weekend
of camping, mountain biking, laughing, camaraderie and
fun that you'll never forget. Go it alone or get a
team together with your friends, their friends and
anyone else who wants to have nothin' but fun for 2
solid days. We'll start you off at High Noon on Saturday
and you'll be going round and round a 14+ mile course for 24 hours,
straight on through the wee hours of the night and back
into daylight again on Sunday.
|
|
Anyone who can ride a bike can do this….your team
decides how many laps each person does…one or a
whole bunch. So bring your camping gear, bike gear
and whatever else will keep you going for 24
hours... then come on out and get dirty with us!

Team Payment
Due to the growth of our event, we have
changed the way we handle volunteer sign-ups
which are now linked to team registration. We
will be issuing volunteer sign-up times based
on when we receive full payment and COMPLETED
registration forms. Please note that if we
received full payment but only partially
complete team member registrations, or vice
versa, you will not receive a volunteer sign-up
group assignment until we have everything
completed. There will be a $5 per person charge
for any changes made to the registration once it
has been submitted.
| | |
Here's how this will work:
- Completed team rosters and full payment received by February 15th = Group A
- Completed team rosters and full payment received by March 15th = Group B
- Completed team rosters and full payment received by April 15th = Group C
- All payments and rosters received after April 15th = Group D
- Group A will have first volunteer sign-up rights on-site from 4-5:00pm, Friday, May 25th
- Group B will follow them from 5:00pm-6:00pm
- Group C will follow from 6pm-8pm
- Group D will have volunteer sign up Saturday, May 26th from 9am-10am.
| | |
|
Registrations received after May 11th
must include a $50 late fee, no exceptions!
Our t-shirt orders will be placed on May 11th,
so if we haven't received them, your team may
not receive the sizes ordered. T-shirts will
not be mailed after the event.

VOLUNTEERS

*Each team is required to provide one volunteer for a 4 hour shift.
Solo riders do not need to provide a volunteer, but must have a support person with them.
*Volunteers receive an event t-shirt, midnight feed & post event pasta feed ticket.
|
*Volunteers are assigned to a job based on Group
numbers assigned at registration. (see details
under "Payment" above) Sign up sheets will be
posted on site during volunteer sign-in on Friday,
May 25th at 4pm, starting with Group A.
(See how this works under "Payment" above.)
|
*The actual volunteer doesn't have to sign the
paperwork, any person on the team may do this
for them, but it is imperative that they pass
along the hours and duties to their volunteer,
and that the volunteer shows up for their shift.
|
*Shifts run through the entire 24 hour time
period. Should your volunteer not show for their
duty, your team will be disqualified.
|
*Your volunteer must be over 18 years of age.
If a team member wishes to participate as the
volunteer, that is ok, however, he/she must be
available for the entire 4 hour period.
|
*The only place where we can split shifts is
in the timing tent, if a team member plans to be the volunteer.
|
Sample volunteer jobs: Timing tent recorder,
dismount caller, number plate caller,
checkpoint station attendant, road marshal,
awards helper, kids race helper.
|
We appreciate your help in providing these volunteers,
as we would not be able to do this event without them!
|
|
If your team absolutely cannot find a volunteer,
email wendy@roundandround.com for options.

CAMPING
|
***NEW THIS YEAR - As you have probably heard,
the State Parks are now charging $30 for an
annual pass to all WA State Parks, or a $10
per day fee. Since we are on State Park
property for the 24 hour race, you will be
required to show your Discover Annual Pass ($30 for
the year good at all WA State Parks), or a
Discover One-day Pass ($10 per day, and you will need at least
2-3 days for our event, so you may as well buy
the annual pass).
You can find out more information as well as purchase them online
at
discoverpass.wa.gov (other purchase options
are available). The rangers will
be checking for the passes throughout the weekend.
Anyone that parks a vehicle there will need a pass;
racers, visitors, everyone! So please be prepared.
We will be giving you a designated size for
your camping area… and our onsite camping
hosts will give you your maximum allowed area
depending on team size and vehicle size.
Should you arrive on Thursday night, May 24th,
you may temporarily park your rigs overnight
in the designated parking lot outside the main
taped-off area and then move into position on
Friday morning.
|
1. Camping is on first come, first served basis.

2. Site selection opens at 6am on Friday, May 25th.
You may line up prior to that if you like

until 6am, when campsite hosts will escort you
to your selected site and measure off your designated
area with you.
|
3. Camping is broken down into 3 categories:
1)Solo/quiet camping - located adjacent to course.
2)RV/Generator camping - not adjacent to course, but close.
