Rider Info

Welcome and Thank You for participating in the 23rd Annual Ride for Raptors

ROAD BEHAVIOR

First and foremost, this event is a RIDE. It is NOT a RACE. You will be riding on open, public roads and are expected to obey all traffic laws and regulations. We will have a police escort with traffic control at intersections in Pendleton for the optional mass start. However, once out of the Town of Pendleton you will be a part of normal traffic. We ask that you set a good example as a biker and encourage you to proactively follow the Upstate's Cyclists/Motorists Road Relations Code of Conduct

SAG VEHCILES

We will have SAG vehicles patrolling all routes until all riders are in. SAG vehicle phone numbers can be found on the cue sheets. We strongly suggest you carry a spare tire, levers, patches and a pump or CO2 cartridges to fix a flat. Limited technical support will be provided at the start of the race and by SAG vehicles during the ride.

MEDICAL EMERGENCIES

If you have a medical emergency call 911 FIRST!! Later you can call the SAG number and let us know how you're doing.

PARKING

Please check the "Directions & Parking" page and abide by the parking restrictions. Note that we have moved the start to the Town Hall at the corner of E. Queen and Greenville Streets (approx. 2 blocks east of the Town Square). You can park along E. Queen and in the school admin building lot next to the Town Hall.

REGISTRATION/PACKET PICK-UP

Pick up your registration packet and T-shirt before you ride so we know you're on the ride. The packet contains a cue sheet and other information.

RESTROOMS

Portable toilets will be at the Town Hall registration. Restrooms are available at the Walker-McElmoyle Fire Station rest stop (25, 60 and 100 rides), PECO Computers (60 and 100), and Toxaway State Park (100). 60 and 100 mile riders will also pass by the Six Mile Rec Dept's Ponderosa Park shortly before the Riggins Bridge Rd rest stop. Restrooms are available at the park.

RIDE SAFELY AND ENJOY THE DAY!!
