IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Bus:
To get on the shuttle busses leaving at 6:45 from Wa Stadium to the competitions, you must show your bus ticket or be ready to buy a new one. Non-registered people must also buy a Spectator Pass.

Food/Water:
Make sure to bring lots of water (at least 2L) and food for recovery. Bring your own lunch. At the XC start, there is the Surisan Provincial Park Visitor Center with toilets and a water fountain. Tap water is drinkable. Additionally, we will have two emergency water stations along the XC course.

Numbers/Gear:
You must bring two starting numbers and wear them on your chest and back. Additionally, you need to wear helmet, knee pads, gloves, and shoes.

Timing/Laps:
XC Elite will be 3 laps, but competitors are allowed to finish after 2 laps without getting disqualified. Those who only completed 2 laps will be ranked behind everyone that completed 3 laps. Timing will be done by chip for XC and by stopwatch for UH.

There will be cut-off times for both XC and UH:

XC Elite: Must start third lap by 90 minutes after the start
Uphill: 30 minutes of total time before DQ

Thanks for your attention,
