Event Registration: You are required to reserve a ticket for each event and can only be in one (1) event at a time, so please do not sign up for two (2) events that are going on simultaneously, it causes group leaders to look for additional people that can’t be in two places at once AND it takes a spot for those that want to participate. Attendee Limitations: We are limiting this event to 100 riders, so if you need to cancel, it's your responsibility to cancel your ticket. We cannot adjust your ticket for you since we do not have your login/password. Because this event is free, we find that many people won’t cancel, and this causes issues with head counts for ride leaders and people who want to come but can’t get a ticket; Please be courteous to your fellow women mountain bikers; PLEASE cancel if you cannot attend.
