Entry Fee - $14 per race pre-reg, $11 for second race pre-reg (there is weekly $3 day-of-race late fee for each week you register at the race, regardless of the number of races you enter). Alternatively, pre-register for the whole series for a discount ($72 for one race/week, $132 for two races/week). If a race is cancelled, that day's pre-reg entries will be refunded (including portions of any Series pre-registration).
Prizes - Prizes awarded in cash and merchandise. Prizes include minimum top 3 cash for each race. M40+, Women, and Jr.'s are scored separately. Cash prizes will be awarded for Overall placings in all categories. We will also award trophies for the top 3 overall of each category at the end of the series. In addition, we will offer Cash and Merchandise Primes. Also, the team that scores the most points in the Pro/1/2/3, 3/4, 4, and M40+ races will win a nice, huge trophy. Points from the top 3 team members count. In addition to that, Carpe Diem Promotions will award a "TBD" prize.
NOTE: VOLUNTEERS! We have need for helpers on March 6th at 10 AM (Sweep Day) as well as during the Series. The Bethel Spring Series is known for the clean, swept road surfaces, even though the race happens at the beginning of the season and the rest of the area roads are salt and sand covered. This is not an accident. Sponsors, promoters, and cycling fans help sweep the course the day before the first race, and the mornings of each successive race. If you would like to earn free entry into one of your weeks of racing, volunteer for the Sweep Day! You will receive free entry for 1, 2, or 3 races on a week of your choice (you must be qualified to race in your chosen races). In addition, we appreciate any help in setting up or breaking down the races. For each week you help with either, we will offer you one free race. Please email me if you would like to volunteer or if you have any questions. Thanks!
Upgrade points -
The Series cannot count for *all* of your upgrade points. However, you may list each
result separately on your resume. Category 5's can use the Cat 5 race. Cat
4's may use either the 4's or the 3/4's. Cat 3's will probably need to use
the Pro 1/2/3's (unless 60 Cat 3's race the 3/4 race). M40+, Women, and
Juniors can list their race, however, the field sizes may not meet minimum
upgrade requirements. Based on the estimated time of each race, all should
be long enough for upgrade purposes.
Course - The course is a wide, secure, 0.90 loop with one hill.
Other Information -
Promoter reserves the right to combine or separate classes. Field Limit 100 (50 for Category 5). If necessary we will hold two Cat 5 races, with the field split into even and odd numbers.
If you have specific questions about the Bethel Training Series just send an
e-mail and we'll be glad to help you.
