Registration/Riders Meeting:

Racer registration and sign-in begins at 5:30 at the North Bridge parking lot on Monument Street in Concord, and will close promptly at 6:00. Riders who arrive after the sign-in period may not be allowed to ride, so please arrive early. Once registration closes a mandatory riders meeting will be held! To avoid congestion in the start area, riders must wait at the parking lot until 10 minutes before their start time and then ride to the line. The lot has often been filled by rider’s cars. We do not want to crowd out park visitors. Please ride to the event if that is possible for you. There is overflow parking in Concord Center.
