Categories and Numbers: There are three fields for the series: A, B, and C. You will indicate your field of choice by answering a custom question during registration.
The A field is intended primarily for riders in Category 3 or above. Category 5 racers should not register for the A field except with prior permission from the race promoter (send email to [email protected]), or inquire at the gate during registration. The B field is recommended for experienced riders with considerable strength. The C field is recommended for all other riders, including new and slower riders. If you register for a field and decide you want to make a change before the race, please let us know at the gate.
Junior Membership: Available to persons 17 years of age or younger. A parent or guardian will need to be in attendance to sign the waivers for the race and entry into the NHMS facility. If you are unable to accompany the minor, please make prior arrangements with the race director to ensure that all necessary forms are completed in advance.
NHMS Gate Entry Fee: The series pass does not include the NHMS gate entry. The gate entry fee is $10 per adult racer, or $5 for juniors and spectators. The gate fee is paid directly to NHMS at gate, and helps cover costs of ambulance, personnel and other direct costs associated with hosting the race at their venue. Please Note: Failure to pay the gate fee will result in a permanent ban from participating in the NHMS series.
Weather Cancellations: We try hard to avoid cancelling races due to weather, but sometimes mother nature happens. We will send out cancellation notices by email to all Bikereg registrants.
New Racers: New racers are always welcome. If you are a new racer and/or it is your first time at the series, please feel free to contact the race director with any questions or ask for assistance during registration. The race series is a welcoming environment, and there are many experienced racers at the series who are happy to assist new racers.
The Courses: The races are run on four courses: (1) the road; (2) the inner road; (3) frontier; and (4) the magic mile. We will attempt to notify racers which course will be used in advance, but do not have control over last minute changes. For information about the various courses, please see the photographs and information at the bottom of this registration page.
Season Passes: Season passes are available on bikereg.com: https://www.bikereg.com/nhms
Licenses and Rules: A USA Cycling license is NOT required for a series pass and/or day-of registration. All USA Cycling Rules for helmets apply. No Aero Bars. Please visit the NHMS page on our website for rules about the series.
