Hello all CTRyans! The sign-up form for this year's Tracking is live. As always, a satellite GPS tracker is encouraged but not required for the CTR.
https://form.jotformpro.com/trackleaders/ctr17The CTR has gotten to be such a Monster, indeed, that we are
limiting the Leaderboard sign-up for the group start to 75. Since there is no registration or sign-up for the actual race, this is really just a way to try and keep the size manageable from a trail-user perspective and avoid any potential issues with permits. Max group size on USFS land is 75 without a permit.
Again, aside from the Leaderboard and/or SPOT rental fee, the CTR is 100% free. But pretend it isn't and kick at least $100 to the Colorado Trail Foundation (
http://www.coloradotrail.org) for keeping the trail maintained and continuing to update their guide and trailside data book.
See you all dark and early in Durango on 7/23 at 4am in front of Velorution Cycles! Oh yeah, Velorution (
http://www.velorutioncycles.com/) is no longer on Main Street, so take note of their new location as this is where we will start. I will be there a bit early to hand out rental SPOTs as necessary.
Please ask any start specific questions in this thread and I will monitor and answer as best I can.
