NO RULES!

Only strong suggestions…

• START STRONG / END WELL. Saturday, September 13 teams will depart at 9am from Enderby and arrive at Lake Country between 4:30pm and 6pm- no sooner or later. Sunday, September 14 teams will depart at 8:30am from Lake Country and arrive in Enderby between 3:30 and 5pm- no sooner or later. In the spirit of the friendly competition, only teams who arrive together as a team in the time allowance are eligible to win.

• DON’T BE A DUMMY. You are entirely responsible for what you do each day. Be safe, heed local laws and guidelines of the area you are riding.

• BE A TEAM PLAYER. This event is a team sport. Your team needs to stay together from start to finish each day. Your team can be as small as 3 and as big as 5. Time to get rad with your friends!

• BE A GOOD NEIGHBOUR. We have 2 lovely campgrounds designated to stay at. Be the person people love to spend a weekend with. Golden rule applies well this weekend!

• EAT WELL. Each team is responsible for their own food this weekend. This will add to the challenge of deciding how to pack and provide for what you need for food. There will likely be snacks and treats- but don’t rely on this to get you through the weekend.

• STACK CLIPS. The coolest thing about this weekend will be the awesome 3 minute (max) video your team will produce of your weekend adventures! Teams will submit a teaser reel or trailer Sunday by 6pm and we’ll all watch them together . Full videos need to be submitted by Tuesday, September 16 at midnight, and the BANGERS grand prize will be awarded for best video Wednesday evening, September 17. Fun!

• PLAN YOUR ROUTES. Your team is entirely responsible to find your most awesome route each day. Start your research now- there are some amazing gems to discover in the region!

• HAPPY CAMPING. Your team is entirely responsible to pack and provide shelter at our designated camp spots. Camping is available at our 2 event campsites. Registered teams will receive an email with details. Be strategic and plan your days according to how much you want to carry with you.
