Packing List & Pre-Race Checklist

🔲 Review the race flyer and Team Snap event details. Make sure TeamSnap notifications are on so you don’t miss any last minute updates in Team Chat.

🔲 League number plate - Coaches will distribute these and keep between races. Don’t lose your race plate; replacements are $15!

🔲 Full water bottles or hydration pack - Fill up at home or at your hotel or campsite; don’t arrive with empty bottles!

🔲 Driving directions to the race

🔲 Cycling shoes

🔲 Cycling socks

🔲 Helmet

🔲 Eye protection - clear glasses are your safest bet

🔲 Padded bike shorts and baggie shorts if you like them

🔲Team Jersey - You must wear your team jersey in the race; no exceptions!

🔲 Gloves - full finger recommended

🔲 Personal tools: Multi-tool, tube, tire levers, pump or CO2 cartridges and head. Course marshals can help you fix a flat without penalty if you have your own tools so be prepared! (11th/12th grace racers will receive a time penalty if a marshal helps them.)

🔲 Arm warmers (weather dependent)

🔲 Short or long sleeve base layer for under your jersey (weather dependent)

🔲 Lightweight jacket for before the race (weather dependent)

🔲 Extra clothes for after the race, including socks!

🔲 Sun block

🔲 Bug Spray

🔲 Preferred energy food for during race (if doing multiple laps)

🔲 Post-race snack or small meal (there are usually food trucks at races, but not always, plus they can have long lines)

🔲 Towel (good for getting dressed/undressed discretely and cleaning-up afterwards)

🔲 Small game or activity for passing time in PZ

🔲 Plastic bag to put dirty/wet clothes into for drive home

🔲 Snacks - team will also have some at PZ

🔲 Camp chairs for Pit Zone and for parent spectating. Tip: put your name on your chair.

🔲 A jug of water is also great for washing after the race!
