BIKE PICK-UP AFTER THE RACE
After you hand over your bike at T2, it will be placed into the back of a FedEx truck for transport back to the T1/bike corral at Bartlett High School. GNT volunteers use moving blankets to help protect your bike from damage and scratches.
There is a good chance your bike and any gear you leave at T2 (in your gear bag) may make it back to T1 before you finish the race. Volunteers at Bartlett will take your bike out of the FedEx truck and place it in your bike stand in T1. It is important to place one of the plain bib number stickers on your bike stand so that volunteers can easily identify what spot your bike belongs in! Only GNT volunteers are allowed in the FedEx trucks to retrieve bicycles and gear.
- When you finish your race be sure to drink some fluids, eat some snacks, take some pictures, and enjoy the many “congrats” and hugs from your family and friends.
- When you return to Bartlett you may enter the T1/bike corral through the “Bike Check-Out” area to retrieve your bike and other gear.
- Please look around your area carefully and be sure to collect all of your belongings and trash. If the race is still going on, please be mindful of active racers in T1; active racers have the right of way!
- For security purposes, in order to remove your bike from the T1/bike corral, you will need to show your GNT bib or body marking/race tattoo that matches the number on the bike you take with you.
