The 24th annual
Snelling Road Race
Saturday February 21 2009
SNELLING HAS CHIP TIMING/PLACING
Snelling road race will have chip timing/results
this year as an experiment. This means there will be two steps to
registration. (1) You will need to get in line for registration as usual
(show license, sign/turn in form, pick up numbers), and then (2)go to the chip
desk, to pick up your timing chip. There will be people there to help put them
on your bike, so bring your bike to that line.
Immediately following finishing (or dropping out),
go to the station just off the loop before returning to Snelling town
to have your chip removed. Do not cross the finish line backwards after
finishing; it will give you a later finish.
