5 Neutral Support by Mike s Bikes Do you know about poison oak? You definitely want to know how to identify poison oak by the time you get to the race. Remember leave of three, let them be! If you happen to touch some, wash the area off with Technu or with soapy water. Neutral support is free mechanical assistance for any student athlete with an emergency. Brian Popplewell, Community Events Manager, provides this service. Spare parts are also available for sale at the neutral support tent. Student athletes are expected to come to each race with fully functional, race ready bicycle. Coaches and adults are not given priority at the neutral support tent. Mike s Bikes is a proud NorCal League sponsor, and it is our hope that you will choose to support them as well. Volunteer Bring your dog! You are welcome to bring your furry friend to the race! Please keep them under control and on leash at all times, and be sure to clean up after they do their business. We re always looking for a few extra hands at our races! Want to help set up the course on Friday afternoon, or lend some assistance with the Feed Zone, Course Marshaling, or Scoring on race day? We d love to have your help and it s a great opportunity to see a few different sides of how our races operate. Sign up here:
