Presented by Summit Velo

 

The Time Trial will be held in Picacho Arizona, conveniently located halfway between Tucson and Phoenix. We will have the first rider off at 11:00 a.m. For those racers not from Tucson who are racing the Omnium that means you will be able to drive to the TT course that morning and only need to spend one night in Tucson to race the road stage!

START TIME:

The first omnium rider start at 11:00 a.m. Racers doing the Omnium will go off by category and class. Riders racing only the time trial will go off after the Omnium racers in order of registration. Start times will be posted on race website www.summitvelo.org by 8:00 p.m. Friday, February 27.

REGISTRATION:

Online registration is required for both the Omnium and for just the time trial at ArizonaReg.com, and closes at 10:15 AM on Saturday 02/28/15. If you are racing the Omnium please register for the appropriate category/age class. They are not the same as for those racing the TT only. However, since the Time Trial will be included in the new Arizona Time Trial Championship, those racing the Omnium as masters will have their results calculated and scored for the series in their appropriate 5 year age class.

PACKET PICK UP AND LATE REGISTRATION:

Packet pick up and late online registration will take place at Sabino Cycles bike shop (7045 E Tanque Verde Road, Tucson, AZ 85715) on Friday 02/27/15, 4-6 PM. Saturday packet pick up and late online registration will be available at the TT venue (18704 S Picacho Hwy, Eloy, AZ 85131) starting at 9:30 AM.

CATEGORIES:

Womens: 1/2, 3, 4, 35+, 40+, 45+, 50+, 55+, 60+, 65+, Fixed open, and Merckx Open.

Mens: 1/2, 3, 4, 5, 35+, 40+, 45+, 50+, 55+, 60+, 65+, 70+, 75+ , Fixed open, and Merckx Open.

Juniors: 10-14 and 15-18 (all)

Tandems (all)

TIME TRIAL COURSE:

The course is an out-and-back. The road has virtually no traffic and we have secured a large staging area on private property that will allow for parking, registration and warm up all in a safe, out of traffic area, still very close to the start/ finish area. We will be using the course introduced last year for the 3 Bears TT Series. On this date there will be only the 20 K distance so the entire course is on good surface with one turn around.

While low vehicular traffic racers must still stay to the right side of the road! There will be race officials on the course to enforce this rule! There will be no warming up on course after the first rider has started.

From Tucson: Take I-10 and Exit #212, Turn left and continue on S Picacho Hwy to staging area at 18760 S Picacho Hwy.

From Phoenix: TakeI–10 and Exit # 211A, Continue south to S Picacho Hwy and turn right to 18760 Picacho Hwy.

From Tucson: Take Old Spanish Trail past the Rincon Store about 2 miles turn RIGHT on Camino Loma Alta (traveling opposite the way the race goes) to Colossal Cave Road then make a LEFT turn (heading EAST). Parking will be about 2 miles after the turn. THERE WILL BE NO CARS ALLOWED ON PISTOL HILL ROAD FROM OLD SPANISH TRAIL. This is for safety & less congestion.

PLEASE PARK OFF THE ROAD WAY ON THE EAST OR RIGHT SIDE OF THE ROAD AS YOU ENTER, AS WE WILL BE RACING USING THE WEST SIDE OF THE ROADWAY!!!!!!!!!! Riders must stay on the right side of the road at all times under penalty of disqualification!!!
