Award Ceremony: We cannot have a large gathering for an award ceremony. Instead, check the Negative Split website on your phone at www.nsplit.com/results, or the paper results posted on the side of the 3RRR trailer, to see if you placed in your age group or were one of the top 3 overall men or women and you can collect your award outside on the deck at Kiona Winery after the race. Awards are race glasses that will NOT be mailed. If you miss the pick up after the race you will need to contact Eric at [email protected] to arrange a pickup time for your award.
Special Considerations: Please note the following:
• Mountain bikes, ONLY. Athletes must use mountain bike frames with 26-29 inch wheels, and tires with a minimum 1.5 inch width (no road tires allowed) and have some sort of knobby, raised pattern that covers more than 50% of the tire surface. So that means the slick portion of the tire is less than 50% of the tire surface.
Questions: Please contact Eric Greager at [email protected] with any race questions.
Volunteers: We need lots of volunteers for all our multi-sport events. If you can help at this event, please contact Eric Greager at [email protected] .
