What you need to bring…

1. A Bike: Each teammate needs their own bike - any bike will do as long as you're comfortable riding the event distance on it. Tandems are welcome (1/team).

2. A Helmet: Helmets must be worn at all times during the event.

3. A Cellphone: 1 phone for each team - for emergencies and maybe to call in a 'lifeline'

4. Water Bottles: We will have water at all of the checkpoints, but no cups (so that we reduce waste). We give you a Specialized water bottle for this reason.

5. Bike Repair: Should you get a flat or break a chain, be prepared to fix it. We'll have a mechanic that can come out to help, but it could take them a while to get to you.

6. Plan of Attack: You are on your own when it comes to your route. If you don't know they city like the back of your hand, it's advised that you do some recon prior to race day and bring a map with the checkpoints marked. No - we do not provide a map.

7. Dry clothes: You may get a little wet, so bring some dry clothes for the after party. We have lots of beer, food, music, and contest at the after party, so plan to hang around.

8. ID and $$$ for the after party:  The 1st couple rounds of beer are on us, then all the money raised from beer sales goes to our non-profits. You may also want to pick up a killer UAR hat, socks, or armwarmers so you can show off to your friends!
