We have retired as a Regional Brevet Manager. Thanks to everyone that has ridden our brevets over the years. We plan to convert some of our brevet routes into non-sanctioned rides in the next season or two. Watch this space for more information.

ADIRONDACK ULTRA CYCLING GENERAL INFORMATION

  • ALL RIDERS MUST PRE-REGISTER VIA BIKEREG.
  The deadline to register will generally be the night before the start of the event, unless otherwise stated.

  Our events will each have a field limit and once that limit is reached, no further entries will be accepted. Please refer to each event's ride info summary or visit BIKEREG for exact details.

  • MOTORIZED BICYCLES OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO E-BIKES
  AND PEDAL ASSIST BICYCLES, AND PETS ARE PROHIBITED FROM OUR EVENTS.
  Riders arriving with a motorized bicycle or pet will not be permitted to participate in our events, will be asked to leave immediately, and no refund or credit will be issued.

• COVID-19 CORONAVIRUS GUIDELINES FOR RIDES:

  • When gathering outside or riding, masks are recommended, but at your discretion. When going indoors, masks are highly recommend, whether or not the establishment requires one. When entering the bike shop, masks are required.

  • We will have masks and hand sanitizer at the start of each ride for anyone that needs anything.

  • If you can not or will not follow these guidelines, or if you are sick or not feeling well, please stay home, as you will not be allowed on this ride or in the bike shop and will be asked to leave immediately.

• All of our events start promptly and most start from the ADIRONDACK ULTRA CYCLING BIKE SHOP. Please arrive at least a half hour early to check in, get ready, receive last minute instructions and have your bike inspected. When arriving and departing, please be courteous, especially if it is early in the morning or late at night, as this is a mixed residential/business neighborhood. Please do not park in another business' lot or block a driveway or the street itself, otherwise your vehicle may be towed. The shop does not have a parking lot, but there is ample street parking in front of the shop and on adjacent streets. For travel directions and parking instructions, CLICK HERE.

• The SHOP will be open before and after our events, in case anyone needs anything or forgot something, and if you would like us to service your bike for any of our events, CONTACT US to set up an appointment. We can usually accommodate riders on short notice, but a week's time frame is best.

• If a ride has a recorded time, rider's times are recorded "door to door," with all rest breaks, rest stops, mechanical stops, delays, etc., included in your official finish time. The official event clock begins at the advertised start time, whether or not you are actually riding, and all finishing times are recorded when you check in with the official time keeper. If a rider dawdles at their car or changes or packs up before checking in, their time will reflect that, just as if you took a break in the middle of the ride.

• ALL BICYCLES USED IN OUR EVENTS MUST BE POWERED SOLELY BY HUMAN FORCE.
  Motorized bicycles of any kind, including, but not limited to: e-bikes and pedal assist bicycles, are prohibited from our events. Riders arriving with a motorized bicycle will not be permitted to participate in the event, regardless of whether the motor is on or off or will/will not be used, and no refund will be issued.

• PETS ARE NOT ALLOWED AT ANY OF OUR EVENTS.
  This includes those brought by riders, crews, friends, family, etc., regardless of whether they are leashed, carried in a bag or kennel, or kept in a car. Anyone arriving with a pet will be asked to leave and the associated rider may be disqualified, given a time penalty, and/or not permitted to participate in the event and no refund will be issued. Service animals as defined by Titles II and III of the ADA will be permitted in areas of our events where the general public is allowed. All service animals must comply with ADA requirements for handler's responsibilities and please be prepared to show your certification documentation. Please note that emotional support animals, comfort animals, therapy animals, etc., are not considered service animals under Titles II and III of the ADA and are not permitted at our events.

  • Additional lighting and reflective gear is highly recommended and flashing lights, both front and rear, are also highly recommended for daytime use.

  • Make sure you have enough battery power to get through the entire night and/or ride, which will be between 2-40 hours.

  • Our lighting requirements supersede all other sanctioning organization's requirements.

  • If you have any questions about our lighting requirements, please CONTACT US before you register for any of our rides, especially if you have any issues with flashing lights, as we do not make exceptions to our requirements.

• Drafting is allowed in all of our events and group riding is encouraged.

• Riders must get completely off the road when stopped.

• Ride no more then 2 abreast and only when traffic permits. Single up when traffic approaches from the rear.

• Keep as far to the right as safety permits and if there is a rideable shoulder you must use it.

• Most of our routes are unmarked. Be prepared to navigate on your own and follow a cue sheet and/or GPS device. If relying on an electronic device for navigation, please make sure you have enough battery power for the entire ride, and be aware that in cold conditions and areas where there is low reception, batteries may drain at a faster then normal rate.

• Most of our events are unsupported on the road, but we'll have pocket food at the start, as well as emergency sag, if necessary. To help you prepare, we've created a rider checklist. To view it, CLICK HERE. Be prepared to be self sufficient on the road, and/or use convenience stores to resupply.

• Sanctioned events will have other rules and regulations specific to their governing organization. Please refer to each event's page for exact details.

• Drug testing using WADA guidelines may be performed on any entrant up to 30 days before or after an event. In addition, any rider under suspension by any sports governing body is prohibited from entering our events.
