We will continue the same format of the 'old' series (with a new twist) - a couple flat courses and a couple hill climbs and we are adding a 'rolling' course with some small little ups and downs but that has a good flow to it and will be familiar to many locals.

If you aren't local, no problem! We are offering a VIRTUAL Series and individual event option so you can join us from anywhere, submit results and be scored separately from the locals and join in on the fun!

• Due to COVID19 and gathering restrictions for events we will give three weeks to complete an event. We will mark the five courses prior to each of the scheduled events beginning.

• Locals and virtual participants can sign up for one event, two, three, four or the entire series. There are FIVE event locations and you only need to participate in 4 out of the 5, to be counted in the series. Individual events will also have their own results page on our registration page.

• Participation: To keep social distancing and follow event gathering guidelines, the time trial events are to be done solo, during your own preferred day and time!

• The duration of the events will last for 3 weeks and most events 'overlap' as to when you can participate in them so that if you want to participate in another event sooner than the three weeks you can.

• Course Information: maps, cue sheet, ride info and parking details will be emailed to registered participants before each event begins.

• Cheer & Heckle Stations: If you need an extra ‘push’ to crank the pedals hard, we will have social distanced 'cheer' and heckling stations along the course on set dates/times for most the events in the series. However, you don't have to participate during those times. You can ride any time of day during the duration of the 3 weeks set up for each event!

  • Event #1 Cheer Station: Etowah Time Trial: Wednesday, June 24th 6-8pm (rain date is June 25th 6-8pm)

  • More Cheer Stations Dates & Times coming for the events in the series!

• Results: Your results will need to be submitted through the results page on our registration platform to be counted by each results deadline.

• Recording TIme/Distance Device: A bike computer, iphone with an activity app or a smart watch (Garmin, Apple Watch, Activity App on your phone, etc) with distance/time will need to be used to participate.

• Submit results by taking a photo of your electronic device with time/distance and input your time on the Results page. Please be prepared to show gps/route/data link if your time needs verified.

• If you are on Strava, join our club and post your attempts and your race data.

• 'Normal' TT results will apply - specifically no drafting, the TT is a solo ride, solo event. This is not a group ride.

• You are on the honor system when participating and signing up in the various categories.

Of course we have super cool and comfy-shirts, finisher prizes and random giveaways and more for our participants!

We can't wait to kick-off summer and safely distance in a fun way with all of you on our bikes! We hope you will join us!

No Refunds. No Transfers. No Deferrals.

When you register for and participate in any of the Lung Buster Time Trial Series you are taking this pledge:

For the love of community and cycling, I am participating in the Lung Buster Time Trial Series with the opportunity to race myself against the clock on a solo-ride in a fun, challenging, event series. I understand that by registering for any of the events in the Series that I agree and comply with all the rules set forth for an individual time trial. I agree that I will ride in the category that I have signed up for and submit my results for that category. I attest that the results that I submit are accurate and honest and that I took every effort to participate fairly and with integrity. I understand that this time trial event is a solo-ride event. I promise that I will not draft off of a friend or fellow rider when I participate in this event. Drafting is any rider that is riding within 3-4 bike lengths behind or beside a rider. I agree that the time I submit was my own effort and time and was taken by using my own personal time on the equipment and category that I registered for. I am honest, I will ride 'clean', and am participating in this event with good intentions and to race against myself and the clock. When I submit my results, I will also submit a screenshot of my data (time/distance) on my electronic tracking gps device. I also understand that there have been in person time trial events that have taken place at these locations previously where age group and course records have been established. If my result is in question, I agree to graciously submit any additional information to the race promoter upon request. Thank you for your support of our community and clean, fun bike riding!

• Series and Individual event participants are eligible for random prizes and awards from our local bike shops, Carmichael Training Systems and Yoga and Massage!
