Here are the rules of the race as well as the answers to frequently asked questions about it, as they were displayed on the old LR100’s site.
RULE #1
DON’T BE A JERK.
You know what that means. Don’t cheat, cut the course, meet up with your support crew on the route, change your single-speed gearing halfway through the race, punch the guy next to you in the finish line chute, etc.
RULE #2
NO SUPPORT CREWS ALLOWED ON COURSE.
Support crews are not allowed on the course except to pick up a rider who is abandoning the event. If a support crew is found to be on course (except at official checkpoints), that rider will be immediately disqualified from the event.
QUESTION #1
CAN I USE A GPS?
Yes. We encourage it!
QUESTION #2
CAN I TRANSFER MY ENTRY? CAN I TRANSFER TO A DIFFERENT CATEGORY?
Yes.
A link in your registration confirmation email from bikereg.com will have all the information you need to transfer your registration to another rider. You may also use that same link from your confirmation email to switch to a different category. No need to contact us. You can make all the changes yourself.
QUESTION #3
HOW LIKELY AM I TO BE MOVED OFF THE WAITLIST?
The BikeReg waitlists are fully automated, so if someone cancels their registration, the person at the top of that category’s waitlist is automatically bumped into the race.
If you’re way down on the list, chances are pretty slim. Most people try to sell their spots, rather than canceling, so they can recoup some of their money.
QUESTION #3
CAN I GET A REFUND?
No. We will not be offering refunds or comp’d entries for the next year of any kind. We work very hard to put on an amazing event for all of our riders, and amazing events cost a tremendous amount of time and money to organize. If you cannot make the event, see the above section to arrange a transfer of your registration.
Note: If you don’t get into the category you want, don’t purchase entries to other categories. Try to purchase an entry from someone who is selling an entry. Multiple entries purchased by the same person are not eligible for refund.
QUESTION #4
I LIKE BEER. WILL THERE BE BEER AT LR100?
Absolutely. Friday night at the rider’s meeting Iron Monk Brewery will have a beer garden opening at 3 p.m. on 7th Ave in front of District Bicycles. They will have multiple brews on tap and cans available. We could not be more stoked to have this amazing partnership with Iron Monk.
QUESTION #5
SHOWERS?
District Bicycles has two showers open and available for all riders to use after they finish the race on a first come, first served basis. District is at the heart of the finish line party, at 120 W. 7th Ave. You can’t miss it.
You can also swing back by your hotel to shower. Or you can just hang out in your chamois and drink beer with us downtown. Totally your call.
QUESTION #6
I DO NOT HAVE A SUPPORT CREW. WHAT ARE MY OPTIONS?
Support crews make the ride more fun, but they’re definitely not required.
This year, we will offer neutral water and nutrition at the halfway point in Perkins, Okla.
Please note that we cannot provide for everyone’s specific needs, so if you have dietary restrictions, please consider packing enough food on your bike for the entire ride.
QUESTION #7
WHAT IS DNF?
Did Not Finish.
QUESTION #8
WILL THE COURSE BE MARKED?
Yes. The 100 mile, 50 mile and 50K courses are all fully marked with stakes at every turn and questionable intersections. Full GPS maps will be available to download for both courses.
QUESTION #9
DO I NEED A SUPPORT CREW?
No.* See Question #6.
*Although you do not necessarily need a support crew it is incredibly fun and motivating to have one. Ask your spouse, your friend, or your neighbor if they want to come along for the weekend and be your support in Perkins, Okla. for the 100 mile distance. It’s something neither of you will ever forget.
QUESTION #10
WHEN IS THE RIDER’S MEETING/REGISTRATION PACKET PICKUP?
Friday will be an evening to remember. We see the rider’s meeting as a chance for everyone to actually see each other, have great conversations, and have an amazing night of community. Plan on coming early on Friday for our event expo with our sponsors, beer garden with Land Run brew on tap by Iron Monk Brewery, and a group ride at 3 p.m. leaving from District Bicycles.
Stay tuned for specific times for riders meetings and packet pickup.
QUESTION #11
IF I BRING MY SOMEONE ALONG WILL THEY HAVE ANYTHING TO DO?
Downtown Stillwater has grown and is continuing to get better and better every day. We have great food, great bars, great coffee, a great outdoor store and a great atmosphere. If you bring someone they will not want to miss the rider’s meeting on Friday night before the race. Many sponsors will be at the expo on Friday night and Iron Monk Brewery will have an amazing beer garden open during the rider’s meeting. On Saturday your friends or family are more than invited to meet you at the halfway point in Perkins, OK as a support crew or to wait for you at the finish line in Downtown Stillwater directly in front of District Bicycles. Bring your crew. They will love it.
QUESTION #12
HOW DO I GET MY BIKE TO STILLWATER?
Land Run 100 is stoked to partner with BikeFlights.com to make getting you and your bike to Stillwater much easier and less stressful. Find out about shipping your steel horse to District Bicycles, where our awesomely talented (and attractive) mechanics will make sure it’s ready to race.
