- Typical USAC rules apply.
• Free lap rule in effect for mishaps ... not rest breaks. Due to the nature of the course, dropped riders will be asked to re-enter from the wheel pit at the back of the main group, when it comes around, so that we don’t have riders scattered around the course. Dropped riders must retire with one lap to go.
• No time trial bars. No straight bars. No power-assisted bikes.
• Required: BarEnd plugs, Brakes, Helmets, normal safety stuff
