XC #2 - May 17 - Round Valley
Registration, number plate pick-up, and other info will be at the Bike Utah tent starting at 4:00 pm and will close for ALL racers at 5:15 pm (no exceptions)! If you are registering on site, please show up with plenty of time to fill out a registration form, sign our waiver, pick up a race plate, and pay your fees.
Parking, number pick-up, registration etc. will all be located at the Quinn’s Junction Trailhead. Please park in the DIRT PARKING LOT located across Gillmore Way from the lacrosse fields. This lot isn’t huge, so please carpool if you can! Overflow parking may park in the paved lots only after the dirt lot is full. DO NOT PARK at the National Ability Center, at the Ice Arena, or along the roads.
All racers at the Round Valley XC #2 will be racing with a MASS START format this year! Make sure you know your start time and are ready to line up at the start before your time to race! START TIMES FOR XC#2 ARE SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT THAN THEY WERE FOR XC#1. Please check out the updated start times for your category. (Our hope is that we will keep these times for the rest of the season.)
Take note that at XC #2 the start line is on Hat Trick and the finish line is on Fast Pitch!
FREE KIDS RACE will start at 6:30 pm! This race is for our youngest riders (10 years old or younger) who are not participating in the main XC event. We’ll have supplies on hand to decorate your own race plate before the race begins!

PARENTS OF YOUNGER/NEWER RACERS - please inform your racers of which category they are racing in and which course they will be riding. Trail marshals or other racers may be able to guide a lost racer, but only if they know which category and course they are supposed to be riding.
