Registration starts at 7am and no pre-registration is setup this year. The park where the race is at is only a block from the hostel.

When you get to the Hostel, they'll be able to help you out with where to go in the morning.

If it was the white signs with the red arrows I got it done. Fun pedal but I'm sure 12 hrs of it will kick the crap out of me. Too bad I don't have my reverb on my bike right now
