REGISTRATION
Cycling license is NOT required.
Registration opens at 7:30 AM for the early categories and classes (Endurance / Pro / Cat 1).
We kindly ask that you do not try to register or check in prior to 7:30 AM. While we do wake up at the crack of dawn (and maybe question our life choices somewhere around that first cup of coffee), it takes us a bit of time to get everything set up and ready to go for you.
If you arrive before 7:30, you’ll likely find us still unloading, organizing, and possibly untangling a few things—so save yourself the wait and give us just a little time to get race-ready!
Cat 2s and 3s, you are welcome to check in after the first wave of racers has been taken care of. We promise we'll get everyone through smoothly. Thanks so much for your understanding.
Sign Up Early and Save!

Note: Fees displayed on the registration page INCLUDE the $3 Fair Hill venue fee + BikeReg platform fees. We have the same platform fees as the other races, but several states, like Maryland, recently enacted new “Fee Transparency Laws” which require the advertised price (registration page price) to match the total price participants will pay at check-out.

At that time, the following entry fees go into effect: END $60 / PRO $55 / ADULT XC & E-BIKE $50 / U19 XC $35 plus $3 Fair Hill venue fee + BikeReg platform fees.
Online registration closes the Thursday before the race, midnight.
Make sure your BikeReg profile has your CURRENT EMAIL ADDRESS. We will be using that email address to communicate valuable event information to you.
Each racer will receive an email confirmation upon registering with important information. If you don't receive this, there's your first clue your email address was entered incorrectly.

If you can't make the rain date, consider buying refund insurance when you register (cannot be purchased retroactively).

In the event of postponement or cancellation, registration fees will not be refunded by the event organizer unless you have purchased the $6 Refund Insurance with your entry fee. This optional purchase is offered under “EVENT ITEMS.” BikeReg platform fees and the insurance fee are not refunded.
NO INSURANCE = NO REFUND if we have to postpone or cancel the event.
Refund Insurance is a smart purchase for those who know they CANNOT make the rain date.
You are allowed to TRANSFER your entry to someone else, before online registration closes, for the original transaction entry amount. You must coordinate with your replacement, who can choose any category in the event, and your replacement pays the difference in price of entry fee, if applicable.
