ADAPTIVE RIDER INFORMATION

ADAPTIVE RIDERS RIDE FREE

All adaptive riders ride free and must register in advance. National Ability Center staff will also be on hand the day of the ride to answer questions & help you get ready to ride.

New last year, adaptive riders can choose any of the routes 16-100 miles, and we have also created new 4 and 7 mile routes.

SUPPORT RIDERS

Are you bringing your own support rider? Do you need a support rider?

A support rider is a volunteer who will ride alongside you for the duration of the ride. If you need the National Ability Center to provide a support rider, please contact the NAC Volunteer Team at  volunteer@discovernac.org to talk about options.

Please place your request for a support rider at least two weeks in advance. Requests within two weeks of the ride may not be able to be accommodated.

BIKE SAFETY & PARKING INFORMATION

TRAFFIC CONTROL / RIDER EXPECTATIONS

Riders are required to follow the rules of the road. All traffic lights, stop signs and right-of-ways are to be obeyed. Helmets are required to participate and riding with headphones or ear buds is not allowed. 

Riders are allowed to ride 2 abreast at any time. Riders are required to single file on SR 32.

“Safety Riders” (volunteer cyclists) will ride each route to ensure that cyclists are following the rules of the road and to help if there are any issues on course. Sag Wagons will also be patrolling the course to help anyone in need.

The course will close at 4:00pm. Cyclists must complete the course in the allotted time or they will be picked up by a SAG wagon. Cut off times throughout the course will also be in effect. Please see Route Information for specific information.

INCLEMENT WEATHER POLICY

In the case of inclement weather while on the NAC campus, please seek shelter immediately in the administration building, equestrian building, or the HUB in the center of campus. Remain there until an NAC staff member announces it is safe to leave the building. 

If lightning is seen while on the course, we highly recommend you seek immediate shelter and remain there until you have not seen lightning for 30 minutes. As a reminder, this is a ride, not a race. Please prioritize safety. NAC staff members will be communicating with SAG drivers and rest stop hosts in the event of inclement weather.

If there is lightning or other severe weather before any of the posted start times, we will hold for 30 minutes before starting the next group. Please check the home page of the Summit Challenge website for any updates to start times the day of the event. 

Dispatch Phone Number for On-Course Needs: 435.649.3991

PARKING INFORMATION

Parking is LIMITED. We suggest carpooling as the closer lots fill up quickly. Walking paths connect lots that are further from the starting line. Limited parking will be permitted in the lots below the National Ability Center, at Quinn’s Junction, and in the dirt lot across from the soccer fields. Parking attendants will be present to facilitate parking the day of the event. There is NO event parking allowed at the Ice Arena or the Dog Park lots.

Parking at National Ability Center Ranch (1000 Ability Way Park City, UT 84060) is reserved for those that require ADA parking. Please follow adaptive parking signs and parking attendants to direct you to the correct parking lot. 

Accessible parking will be available at the NAC main lot (located in front of the Admin Building and Lodge). A volunteer at the gravel lot will allow people with ADA needs through to park up the back entrance. No parking pass will be required this year.

Please see map below for all other parking locations. Please note that packet pickup will be at the Athletic fields, not at the NAC starting line.
