FAQ

Is the Salt To Saint a “race” or a “ride”?

It is a “Ride”

The difference between a “Ride” and a “Race” according to the powers that be, the ones that issue our event permits, is that a ride is a cycling event that does not have road closures, or police support to control traffic. A race is a cycling event that has a closed course and the primary focus is to be the fastest team to finish. That is not the Salt To Saint Relay. While many teams do push themselves to beat other teams or beat their time from years past, this can not be done at the expense of the road regulations. If riders or teams are found top be breaking road regulations the put the entire event at jeopardy they will be disqualified.

Isn’t it too dangerous to ride at night?

Depends who you ask. We recommend asking someone who has done it. With the proper use of lights and reflective gear, your are more visible at night than in the day. The dangers of road cycling will still be present and should never be ignored. But, riding at night is something we feel everyone should experience.

Is this a team time trial?

No, it is a “relay”.  A ” road bike relay” consists of a team (more than one) of riders, assigning a leg or distance to each member of their team. Each of these assignments will add up the be the total distance of the event.  The Salt To Saint does welcome “Solo” riders, but it primarily a relay event.

Can more than one team member be riding at the same time?

Yes, if you so desire. Many teams do this to provide their riders someone to work with and talk to, and it should go unsaid, but all riders must pay, be registered, and have signed the waivers. Even if they are only riding for a short distance. Again, all riders must pay, be registered, and have signed the waivers.

Does my entire team need to be present to register?

No. The team captain is responsible for registering the team and paying the registration fee.  He or she will can then employ whatever means necessary to receive payment from the team members. Pay them early or this part can get ugly.

Is there food support along the course?

This is team supported event.  We will provide a goody bag at check in, and give some good recommendations for food along the way. You know what you like, and what works for you. We don’t want to guess.

How do I know what start time my team will be assigned?

Start Time will be assigned, posted, and emailed out shortly after registration closes.

Is my commuter bike light good enough?

We recommend using a brighter-than-average cycling light for this event. The key question to ask is “is this light for seeing or just to help me be seen?”

See the Event Bible for light recommendations. We recommend a headlight with at least 500 lumens.

How do I delete and/or replace a team member that is not longer participating?

When registering, the Team Captain will choose a team name and password. Once registered and paid, the Team Captain can then share those two things with the other team members, giving them the ability to register themselves.
We understand that people commit and have to back out or things fall though, so we have made it easy to swap team members out. The Team Captain is in charge of managing team membership.
When the Team Captain creates a Team, he/she is sent a confirmation email with a link to manage his/her Team. The Team Captain is the only member of the team that can drop riders from the race. The Team Captain can also invite Team members and can change the position of Team Captain to someone else.
Once a Team Captain goes into their confirmation email and clicks to manage their team, they will be able to see their Team information page. From there, the Team Captain will see his/her team members listed, and to right of each of his/her team members there will be a “Remove” button. Once a team member has been removed, the next step will be to have the new team member simply go onto the registration form and join the desired team.
Another method to delete and/or replace a team member is to click HERE and then select the View/Manage Team option. Once the View/Manage Team option is selected, the Team Captain will be asked to enter the email that they used to sign up with. The Team Captain will then be able to select his/her team and view the team members listed.
