Race Details
The Bottom Line
·
RACE DATE: June 7th Rain or Shine
·
Entry Fee: There is no official entry fee. However, donations are
greatly appreciated and anyone who has participated before will tell you that as
events go, it’s a bargain.
·
There will be someone at each transition point starting at 6:30 am
to keep an eye on your equipment, bikes, canoes, Etc. Your equipment will be
safe.
·
Get your equipment to the transition points early and get your
vehicle to the finish line in time to catch the shuttle to the start line.
·
Any cars parked at the start or at the end of the race will be
subject to parking fees of either Lapham Peak State Park or Waukesha County
Park.
·
The biking portion of the race will take place on the Drumlin
state bicycle trail. A trail pass is required to ride on this trail, and can be
obtained at any state park office including Lapham Peak and at a number of area
bicycle shops. I will also have them available the morning of the race.
·
The trails we will be on are heavily used, so please be courteous
to fellow hikers and bikers. Please be especially careful on the bike trails, as
you will encounter families with small children, training wheels, strollers etc.
·
We will have Gatorade at each checkpoint and there are rest rooms
on the bike section.
·
Although there are bathrooms and liquid refreshments along the
way, you may want to carry your own food and water, please be prepared.

Course maps will be available Saturday morning. If you would like
one sooner let me know.
·
There
will be a bike coral set up at checkpoint #2. Your bike and any equipment will
