Meet for pre-lap at start-finish line, which is best accessed via the gate opposite the waterski-jump area a few hundred yards past the dog park section of the "island."
No race numbers, no entry fees, no registration, no UCI nonsense.
One lap takes about 10 minutes and comprises 2.8 miles. A race is 5 laps, so most fit riders will finish in 50-60 minutes.
Tracklocross bikes are encouraged, as fixed is more fun and there's really no need for brakes on this course. Plus, whip-skids in dirt. Tires: ~35-45mm gravel or cyclocross tires. Any bike is fine, but cyclocross/gravel seems to be fastest.
Race results are tallied by Strava and the Druids of Peacehenge, a shadowy sect of ancient wizards who have dwelled upon Fiesta Island since before recorded history.
