Prelude Riders

SAFETY

Helmets are mandatory for all riders. Helmets will be available for purchase from SCOR. If you ride in a paceline, please announce "on your left" when passing other riders. Please ride single file and understand that you assume all liabilities and risk for riding in a paceline. No personal SAG vehicles are allowed. Headphones, Walkmans and iPods are also forbidden by law. TRIKKE BIKES PROHIBITED.


LAW ENFORCEMENT AND INTERSECTION CONTROL

The Santa Barbara County Sheriff's Department and California Highway Patrol will be providing intersection control throughout the courses. Please follow their directions. At unmanned intersections and on the route, please obey all applicable vehicle code laws. These roads are open to normal traffic, but are generally lightly traveled due to the rural nature of the area. Riders who violate vehicle code laws, ride unsafely or are rude, discourteous or dangerous to other riders (or to law enforcement personnel) will NOT be allowed to enter any future SCOR events and face ticketing by law enforcement personnel.

Solvang Prelude News and Updates
Enagic-LogoKangen Water® -
Japan based Enagiic Corporation has been the leading manufacturer of alkaline ionizers and water filtration machines for over 30 years. Kangen Water® machines have been introduced into the United States to turn home tap water into pure healthy alkaline drinking water. An Enagic machine can produce Kangen Water® which has all three properties of being an antioxidant, being alkaline to reduce body acidity and being micro-clustered which allows Kangen Water to more quickly penetrate your cells and truly hydrate the body. Many SPIZ customers have reported improved dissolution of the product in Kangen Water® and better performance when compared to bottled or tap water.
You may find more information at http://7198030.yourbodyiswater.com.

Kangen Water® will be available to all Prelude riders at our SAG stops and at a booth in our Cycling Festival. Stop by, fill up your water bottle and see how much better you perform!

Figueroa Mountain Brewery -
This brand new beer brewery has established it's business in Buellton literally within a half mile of our Start/Finish line. They specialize in a variety of fine ales and will be making their products available to everyone over age 21 at our Cycling Festival. Look for their popup tent near the catered lunch area.
