XC #3 - May 24 - UVU-Heber City
All racers at the UVU XC #3 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!
Parking will be located in the UVU Heber Campus parking lot.
Registration, number plate pick-up, and other info will be at the BikeUtah tent starting at 4:00 pm and will close for ALL racers at 5:15 pm (no exceptions)!
You may then proceed to the start gate at the appropriate time for your category mass start!
Make sure you are lined up in your assigned category BEFORE your category start time! All racers in their respective categories will start at the same time!
You MUST start with your assigned category.
Starting with the wrong category or otherwise missing your start time will result in a DQ for the race.
Line up within your category will be on a first-come, first-served basis.
PLEASE READ for all the information you need on MASS STARTS and Start Times - take note of the “MUST BE LINED UP BY” time

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!
Register at the Bike Utah tent - it is mandatory that parents fill out a registration form and sign a waiver for kids to race.
It is mandatory that all participants wear a helmet and closed-toe shoes.
Parents (on foot only) may accompany their child through the race if needed.
The kids race is not timed, but the overall time kids spend on the course should not exceed 15 minutes.
This course will consist of a short loop on College Way - UVU Connect between the parking lot and the canal. We’ll leave it up to our riders (and their parents) if they want to do one or two laps.
UVU XC #3 Course Maps
Beginner/Short Course Map:
(1 lap) There will be YELLOW ARROWS at the beginner split indicating the beginner course and a Trail Marshal to make sure you take the correct trail. Follow the flags, the signs, and any instructions from our trail marshals. Study the map beforehand and KNOW YOUR COURSE!
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.
Preride the course if you have time! It is your responsibility to know which course you are riding and where you are going!
Have fun out there and watch for other trail users.
PRO/EXPERT/MASTERS/SS/SPORT COURSE:
(1 lap) Mass Starts are back! Know where the beginners split off from the main course. There will only be Trail Marshals at key intersections. Pass each other safely and courteously.
