Bonus Checkpoints
- Bonus Checkpoints are optional.
- Bonus checkpoints will not mark bonus manifest without first visiting the checkpoint listed next to the time slot. (example: Bonus #9 will be marked only between a visit to Checkpoint #1 and Check point #2 during your lap)
- All spaces provided for signatures must be filled (either one or two depending on checkpoint) for points to be awarded. A completed bonus checkpoint is worth one point. The exception is bonus #4, which has the potential to be four points.
- Each bonus checkpoint location is autonomous, and has created their own prerequisite for marking a bonus manifest.
Community Courtesy
- Slow Down when riding through block parties.
- Don’t be a jerk! Respect the community. That is why we are throwing this race, because we love our neighborhood.
