  • A copy of your passport (shows who you are)
  • A copy of your event/tour registration (shows the bikes intended use)
  • A copy of your bike receipt (shows bike is 6 months old and considered used)
  • A photo of you and bike in the US (shows bike was in US)

The road went to gravel, then dirt, then single track, then a footpath to railroad track. What a great test for new road tubeless wheelset from Stan’s NoTubes! Yes we road the tracks without a flat or burp. Ba bump, ba bump, ba bump…
