• You must obey all USAC rules and Colorado State Laws. That includes riding to the right of the road and never crossing the centerline.
• You must know the course. On our website you will find a course map and GPS files that you can use to navigate the course.
• You must not warm up on the course once the race has started. If a marshal or USAC official sees you, you will be disqualified.
• You must be aware of other park users, this is an open course. Be courteous, we are guests of CCSP and must respect all other park users.
• You are responsible for your own safety. Our marshals and traffic control personnel will do their best to warn you of any vehicle, pedestrian, or bicycle traffic but you are responsible to look both ways when crossing an intersection or coming up to a crosswalk.
• You must read and understand the KHMTT flyer. The race flyer is now part of our website (this page) and it contains all the details about the series. Most questions we receive are covered one this page, read it and know it before you register.
• You must arrive at the park on time and be at the start line on time. If you arrive at the park late due to circumstances not under your control, see us at the table behind the Smoky Hill parking lot and we will do our best to reschedule your start time, but there are no guarantees.
• You must pin your bib correctly. Our spotter and timing crew do not have x-ray vision. If they cannot easily see your bib number, they may not be able to give you your time. You may want to consider yelling out your bib number as you go by the spotter, located just after the last turn towards the finish. We have detailed instructions on how and where to pin your bib here.

* Rocky Mountain Road Cup eligible category

The above fees do not include any fees charged by Bikereg.com nor the entry fees for Cherry Creek State Park.

Cost per individual race is 10.00 for under nineteen age categories, 87.50 for the tandem category (each rider), and 40.00 for all other categories.

If you do not have an annual USAC license you may purchase a one day license for an additional 15.00.

If your annual USAC license is expired, you must purchase an experienced one day license directly from USAC at https://usacycling.org.

If you want to ride the course twice (two bibs, two start times, two categories) pay only 8.00 in addition to your base registration fee.

Confused by the categories? For an explanation click here.

The KHMTT allows you to race twice each night for a very low additional cost.

When registering to race twice, you need to consider the time you believe you will be able to complete the course during your first race of the night, time to recover, and time to make your way to the start line before you select your second race start time. The normal time is about an hour.

Because you need to determine in which order you want to race in each of your categories, and set your start times to be able to finish one race and start the next, you will not be assigned start times when you register but will be sent an email that will allow you to pick the order and start time for each of your races.

USAC rules state that each race must be in a different category, however if you are a CAT P-1-2-3 racer and do not want to race in a RETRO category you may race twice in the same category.

However for series points and reporting of race results to USAC your second race results will not be considered.

The KHMTT series is now part of the Rocky Mountain Road Cup competition.

The Rocky Mountain Road Cup is a season-long points competition for individuals and teams that consists of road racing, time trials, criteriums and hill climbs held throughout Colorado in the the spring and summer. These races bring the joy, challenge and excitement of road events to riders of all ages and abilities.

Your overall standings in your category during the series will be counted in the Road Cup.

For more information, click here.

E-bikes may be Class 1 only and must adhere to the following:

• No throttle
• Freely operable pedaling system: rear wheel drive train of pedals, crank, chain, and gear system.
• 750 watt or less motor (manufacturer’s label of compliance is the minimum standard)
• Motor engages only with pedaling
• Motor assistance cut off at 20 mph (32 kmh)
• A single battery
• Limited start assist (no pedaling) up to 4 mph (6 kmh)

The e-bike should have a label on the frame indicating it is a class 1 e-bike showing the max wattage and speed (example: 350w 20 MPH) or the racer must be able to verify to the Chief Referee that the bike does conform to the above requirements. The Chief Referee will make the final decision on e-bike qualifications.

E-bikes must be pre-checked by the KHMTT mechanic next to the COBRAS tent before your first race.

Register

Full series registration will be available about 45 days before the start of the series.

Purchasing fewer races than the full series, Show and Go, and single races will be available about 10 days before the start of the series.

The registration process will enable you to select your approximate start time. You will be assigned the next available start time based on the time you selected during registration.

Start times will be assigned on a first come, first served basis. Once your registration has been completed you will be notified by email, usually within 24 hours. Start times will also be posted here.

Be sure that your email and mailing addresses are correct on the registration form.

If you register 10 days before the start of the series your bib will be mailed to you if your USAC license is current.

If your bib is not mailed to you, your bib may be picked on race day after 3:15 PM at the Smoky Hill Parking Lot Pavilion.

Registration is available online up until 2:00 PM on race day. Online registration is smart phone friendly.

License Requirements:

• A current USA Cycling (USAC) or UCI racing license is required

Full Series or Multiple Race Purchases:

• You must have a valid Annual USAC or UCI license

  • USAC memberships/racing licenses may be purchased at https://usacycling.org

Single Race Purchases:

• A valid USAC or UCI racing license is required

• If you do not have an Annual USAC License:

  • If you have never held a USAC annual or UCI racing license you may purchase a one-day USAC license when you register

  • If you have an expired USAC license you must purchase an experience one-day USAC license on the USA Cycling website before you race

Racers will be able to purchase a minimum of four races (or the number of races remaining in the series) starting about a week before the start of the series.

Example: after week one when there are six races remaining in the series, you may purchase four, five or six races. After week five when there are only two races left, you may purchase the two remaining races. Purchasing multiple races provides you with a set start time and bib number for all your races.

For racers who do not know from week to week if they will be able to race but would like to reserve a start time for the complete series, you may purchase a Show and Go pass. (Available about 10 days before the start of the series.)

The cost to reserve your start time is 20.00 . Once you pick up your bib at the park you can just show up at the start any week you choose and race.

Your credit card on file will be charged a discounted single race fee of 35.00 per race.

The KHMTT has an exceptional safety record, thanks to our dedicated volunteers and supporters who assist racers, monitor motor vehicles, and direct traffic. We offer a variety of positions and the COBRAS will provide training and equipment for your success. (Race marshals must be at least 16 years old.)

There are three ways to participate:

• Race free of charge in exchange for volunteer hours (“Race for Free”).
• Work for a monetary stipend (“Paid”).
• Volunteer without compensation.

If you choose Race for Free, volunteers are given either early race start times or late race start times depending on the shift you are assigned to. 

We do our best to be sure you have plenty of time to marshal, warm up and race.

To receive more information and to sign up, click here

You will be issued a bib number for the entire series for each category in which you are racing. Do not discard your bib after the first week – you will need it for all the races!

Bibs are not transferable to another racer.

The race bib must be pinned correctly on the left side. If the bib number is obstructed by hair or otherwise hidden from the view of the spotter or timers, then you may not receive a time.

For correct placement and pinning information, click here.

• Aero bars
• Wheel rims deeper than 50mm

• Aero helmets

Bicycle: The seat tube and down tube must be straight and the height to width of the tubes may not exceed a ratio of 1 to 2 compared to the top tube.
