IMPORTANT & TIME SENSITIVE NOTE FOR KIDS (AND PARENTS): THIS IS A VERY IMPORTANT BIKE CHECK NOTE REGARDING PREPARING YOUR BIKE FOR THE EVENT!

πŸ˜€BIKE CHECKπŸ˜€

IT'S TIME TO GET YOUR BIKE READY FOR MAY 1ST!

For the ADULT DU, you are NOT required to get your bike checked & approved although we HIGHLY recommend doing so.

For all the AWESOME kids doing the KIDS' ROCK DUATHLON, getting your bike and helmet checked/inspected and approved before race day in MANDATORY!

Please go to one of the two BIKE WORKS locations before race day to get your bike & helmet inspected, approved and then they will place a smiley face sticker on both.

QUICK HELPFUL HINT:
PLEASE fill the tires with air and try to get the bike in good working order before arriving for bike inspections!


πŸ’₯NOTEπŸ’₯
If getting to
Bike Works is simply too far for you to go before the event on May 1st,
you can take it to your local bike shop and have them email us the following information:

Please have them email scoogie@scoogie.com the following information:

(PLEASE DO NOT forget any of the below information)

 

1. Subject line MUST READ AS FOLLOWS:
PEACE VALLEY DUATHLON BIKE & HELMET CHECKED BY LOCAL BIKE SHOP FOR ("name of participant")
2. In the body of the email you must have the following information:
~Full first & last name and age of child participating in the duathlon.
~Name of bike shop that approved BOTH THE BIKE AND THE HELMET.
~EXACT BRAND AND MODEL OF BIKE & HELMET that your child will use on May 1st 

 

Again, please do not forget any of the above important information. 
When we receive this information, we will put aside two smiley face stickers which you will pick up when you pick up your packets and you will place them on your child's bike and helmet (please do not place them on your child...we already know that they are approved🀣)
Note: We will have a list of everyone that got their bikes & helmets approved at their local bike shop and we will only distribute stickers to them.
NO CHILD WILL BE ALLOWED TO ENTER THE BIKE TRANSITION AREA WITHOUT AN APPROVED SMILEY FACE STICKER ON BOTH THEIR BIKE AND THEIR HELMETS. 

AGAIN, ADULTS DO NOT NEED TO GET THEIR BIKES OR HELMETS CHECKED.

Besides being an AWESOME local bike shop….Bike Works is all about being part of the community! In partnership with Discover Doylestown, we are excited to bring the international Bicycle Film Festival to Doylestown from April 28-30th, 2022. We are able to bring this event to our community because of the sponsorship of GoPro and Giant Bicycles. Thank you also to the Dr. Beth Snyder DMD, Stuart Wilder Esq., and the Central Bucks Bicycle Club for their sponsorship of our venues. Thank you to the Mercer Museum, the County Theater, and Doylestown and Lahaska Bookshops for their support.

😊A couple more tidbits of useful information about the event😊

 

~Your timing chip will be on your ANKLE (using a Velcro strap). But, it’s important that you return the ankle strap & chip after you cross the finish line. There will be a volunteer at the finish line assisting you with your strap.

~If you are competing as a TEAM…(either 2 or 3 teammates), you will transfer the timing chip strap to the next team member for their portion of the race. You will not transfer your race bib, that stays on you the whole time!

~Helmets ARE required.

 

PACKET PICK-UP DETAILS WILL BE ANNOUNCED 2 WEEKS BEFORE THE EVENT
