Karen Hornbostel Memorial Time Trial Series at Cherry Creek State Park


 The KHMTT is filling up quickly!

 

Please go to Prerace.com and register for the event's registration lottery.    

 

As per the flyer, the lottery will be conducted on March 1 and time spots will be awarded. 

 

2012 KHMTT Flyer can be found here.    


This year, registration is via a lottery that consists of a two step process.  Step 1 is registering for the lottery.   When you register for the lottery, you will be asked to provide your relevant information and select your preferred start times.  After this registration, you will exit Prerace but will not be charged the entry fee.  You will appear on the roster in a category with an (A), which stands for Applicant.

Step 2: You will receive an email from info@prerace.com offering you a start time.  Follow the link back into Prerace to pay and complete the transaction. You might want to put info@prerace.com in your contact list so your confirmation email doesn't go to your junk folder.

Thanks and we look forward to seeing you at the series.
