Yes, you'll receive a printed copy in your rider bag. But why wait when you can [READ IT NOW]

IT’S NOW TIME for you to LOG-IN and update your Crew information. You can make changes/updates as many times as you need between now and the start of LoToJa.

Relay teams… most are self-supporting, but should still provide this information for at least one or more of their cyclists/drivers.

To LOG-IN you will need your Reg ID and email address (included above).

[UPDATE YOUR CREW]

NEW THIS YEAR is our Arrival Calculator PDF Form. It is attached with this email. The form replaces the chart that was previously included in the Race Bible. Why is it helpful to your ride/race? Well, it's not so much for you. We hope you'll complete the form and give Page 2 to the Crew that will be supporting you. It will help them more accurately anticipate your arrival time at the feed zones and finish line.

NOTE: Attached PDF Form must be opened in Adobe Acrobat Reader in order for it to function as currently designed.

In about ten days from now you will receive one final LoToJa Latest email from us. It will include the latest event news, including late-breaking road construction updates, as well as checklists that’ll help you and your crew with final preparations. We look forward to seeing you soon!

You should never try something new on race day. That’s why Science in Sport, the Official Nutrition Sponsor of the LoToJa Classic, wants you to know how to properly train for race day with the sports nutrition products provided on course.

Things you should know:

1. Your body’s fuel stores can run out within 90 minutes of exercise. Don’t fuel too late; we recommend fueling within the first 30 minutes of exercise.

2. For optimal performance, target 60g of carbohydrates per hour. An easy way to hit this is to take one gel every 20-30 minutes of cycling.

3. SiS GO Isotonic Energy gels and Go Electrolyte drink are preferred by cyclists as they are easy on the stomach and supply you with the carbohydrates you need.

Make sure to sign up and download Science in Sport’s Cycling Nutrition Guide so you have all the info for fueling before, during, and after the LoToJa Classic.
