Notes for Participants

Chip timing for U13, U15 and 15 categories. This will allow us to have more accurate and precise timing. It will also offer us live result tracking during the race, for those who can't watch the event live, they can online!

  • Recommend you have a bottle of water for the racers
  • Don't forget that there are draw prizes at the end of each race
  • Be careful for the adult race taking place when leaving the park. The race courses will often cross walking paths.
  • Remember that the HRM Wet Weather Field Restrictions apply to our event, thus check the website if it's a rainy day
  • We will have an easier inner loop for the Under 8 and Under 10 aged racers that will avoid the harder sections at the next race. They still start with the Under 13 and Under 15 at 6:30pm.
  • We would like to post pictures of the young racers competing at Short Track on the Cyclesmith website. There will be a sheet at the registration table for parents to sign for those that are happy to give permission to do so.
  • Don't forget to bring your plates to each race!
  • For those timed categories - please ensure you get your chip before your start time, put it on, and after the race, return it to the race organizers.

Entry fee is $45 for any age, any ability and covers every race. We keep it simple, one fee. The earlier you register, then more races you can enjoy! Please note that there will be a 2.5% credit card fee plus a Zone4 fee ($1) added to your total.

Note sure if you child will like the series - test the waters. There is a one time only, one event only drop in fee for all youth categories(u8/10/13/15) of $10 - which is credited toward the series fee if the youth likes the event and wants to participate again.
