Hot Thoughts
Couple thoughts on the heat potential. TLDR1. We are increasing our ice at checkpoints to use for bottles and body. 2. We are working on adding water stops and will also have rolling water trucks driving the course in reverse on the back half of the 75 and 150 courses.3. Utilize @livehydrationspalenox before and after the race. 4. We will be very strict on time cut offs. We’ll post those times by Thursday evening. 5. You can drop to a shorter distance until Thursday. Do that through your bike reg account. 6. Road are rolling fast and are beautiful right now!!
Be sure to stop by the @silca_velo Bike Wash after you finish Gravel Worlds! The bike wash is ran by and 100% of donations go to @lancaster_mtb, our local @nebraskamtb team! Help support the next generation of cyclists in our community by donating generously! See you soon!!
Massive thank you to sponsors like Silca that allow our event to raise money for amazing causes. That’s the definition of an incredible sponsor in our book!
Rules of the Road!!
Rules of the Road!!! Stay right. Slowdown/Stop at stop signs until it’s clear to proceed. Stay in the roadway. It’s critical that all of us are following the rules of the road at all gravel events. Not only for safety, but for the longevity of the sport of gravel cycling.
Let’s talk number plates!!
Do not bend, cut, tape, modify your number plates!!
For the safety of all riders, we must have number plates displayed properly!
