Are you getting excited for our 31st Vermont 50 next Sunday, September 29th-cuz we sure are!

-For you it’s time to plan your weekend and your race strategy.
First off we’d like to remind you that YOU represent OUR RACE to OUR RACE COMMUNITIES, that being said…
PLEASE be courteous to people you meet
PLEASE do not litter ANYWHERE
PLEASE obey all posted speed limits, when in doubt-go slowly! Gravel roads ~30 mph, paved roads, usually 35-40 mph
PLEASE watch out for horses and riders (see below!)
Last week we wrote about happenings on Saturday (if you missed the email you can catch up on our Race News Page)
We’ve posted your Bib and Bike Plaque numbers on our Race Homepage.
You can use these numbers for setting up your Drop Bags to be dropped off for us to transport, if your crew isn’t carrying them for you (having your crew carry them saves YOU time, you won’t have to wait for an aid station to close +30 minutes for your stuff to be returned to the finish line).
The Bib/Bike Plaque list on our Race Homepage also shows you which RACE WAVE you’ll be in. |
