| *Riders must be ready to start the Stage by the listed start time. If riders are unable to do so, they and their bike will be SAGed forward to the next stage where they may continue with the race. We are doing this because this race is in the Sacramento area in the middle of summer, and we don't want anyone keeling over! All racers will end up at Peninsula Campground, and even if they do not make the cutoff to start Stage #4, they will get a boat ride straight to Beals Point. | ||||
Registration closes on Wednesday, June 17, 2020 at 11:59pm! There is no race day registration.
Space is limited to 300 people! Given that we need buses, box trucks and boats to do the shuttle and boat transfer for each racer, it is capped at 300 racers.
Transfers & Deferrals:
We have a no-refunds policy (see Clipped In Races refund policy). However, we do allow registration transfers for a $25 non-refundable fee. Transfers must be requested via email by Wednesday, June 10 at 11:59pm.
New in 2020, we are offering a deferral program. If for any reason you feel that 2020 isn't your year to race the Epic, you will be able to defer your registration to the 2021 race during a deferral window from May 4 - May 20, 2019 at 11:59pm. There is a $35 deferral fee to cover program administration and costs already incurred. Please review the full policy here before you email us between May 4-20.
