Long Wheel Base Posted November 17, 2017 Share Expo:Seems like cost savings have done away with the sponsored water bottle and limited goodies. No bag either.I wonder if there are safety pins in the useful white envelope...?We got a draw string bag with a bottle and a few other things in for the kiddies race. EDIT: and a T-shirt.

Rob22 Posted November 17, 2017 Share So I must get there at 02h35???Hi, not sure where it says be there 3 hours before. Actually the site wont be ready so it does not help to get there too early. On you final instructions letter it tells you what time you pen opens and what time you need to be in the holding area - This is 45 min before your pen opens.

Frosty Posted November 17, 2017 Share Hi, not sure where it says be there 3 hours before. Actually the site wont be ready so it does not help to get there too early. On you final instructions letter it tells you what time you pen opens and what time you need to be in the holding area - This is 45 min before your pen opens.Is the final instruction letter available online? I never got one in my race pack. Only my (blue) number, pins, cable ties and frame number. As I’m not a newbie, I assume it’s pretty much the same as before... load through the “orange” gate by a certain time? And also going off in VC, it’s one of the first few batches through the “gates”.

Hey all.So I got my race pack and it appears that Cycle Challenge fixed up my starting time :clap: Looking forward to riding in R Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PregoRoll Posted November 17, 2017 Share So Cycle Challenge messed up big time on my starting time and my rather extensive efforts amounted to only a partial remedy. So for me that means s tarting in Z at 8:10, half an hour after I should be. Anyone else starting in Z looking for around 3:40?Had the same issue. I rode with a charity in 2015 with some slower riders. Did a 5hr. Entered this year to do a sub 3, got hit with a 8:30 start. Tried to protest it and was told no because my finish time was slow. Even though my results from 2011 and 2012 were 2:40!! No second lap for me this year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No second lap for me this year the rules of seeding are clear... 1 penalty point for every month in excess of 5 months. and if your result is older than 5 years, it doesn't count. so, there's that.
