2019 Shenandoah Mountain 100

NO OUTSIDE SUPPORT- You can NOT have your family or friends drive around the course and support you - automatic DNF will result!

- We are limiting your drops to two - 1 gallon ziplocks bags that we will provide. That includes your lights!!!! - if the ziplock cannot seal closed we will not send it the aid station - no camelbak drops allowed unless it fits in one closed gallon ziplock bag. Your bags will be numbered by event staff. We are not responsible for lost, stolen or missing drop bags.

There is 1 mini water station and 5 full service aid stations complete with food, beverages, and support. The aid stations are what makes this race so fun. As the race gets bigger it gets a bit more hectic for the folks running the stations. So be cool- chillout, and if you see or hear someone mouthing off to one of our awesome fluffers please thump them upside the head. They are there so you can perform!!!When stopping at a station please do not drop you bike in the road, either keep it between your legs or walk it to the side of the road and place it clear from harm by vehicle or foot traffic.

We have a drop system organized where you can arrange to have supplies (lights, gear, food, etc.) left at the aid stations. They must be labeled well and are to be dropped off Saturday evening from 8 to 10:00 PM. They cannot be picked up again until Sunday evening- times will be posted for pickup soon! If you are unable to pick up your supplies you can mail us a Priority mail label filled out with a stamp and we will mail you your supplies. Last year people were grabbing the wrong things and this caused quite a headache. Thanks for letting me try this new policy!
