What are the road intersections like during the race?  The road intersections will have volunteers at each location directing bike traffic – NOT road traffic.  The road traffic will be directed by the Warren County Sheriff’s Department and the New York State Police.  Please do not assume that they will be able to stop traffic at all intersections.  Slow down and be prepared to stop if necessary.

Can I take my stuff out of transition after I finish the race?  Eventually yes, but in order to keep the transition area clear, we ask that you wait until the majority of racers are finished.  We will make an announcement as to when you can take your equipment out of the transition area.  This will be when all racers are out on the run course.
