FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Who can register?

Anyone 18 or older on event day. There's no upper age limit and no minimum pace — Group C exists exactly for riders who want to enjoy the road without racing it.

What's the format?

A fully supported, out-and-back metric century (62 miles / 100 km) on Historic Route 66, from Lewis Kingman Park to Valentine, AZ and back.

Are e-bikes allowed?

Yes. E-bikes are welcome and ride with the group at a matched pace.

What's provided on course?

Two aid stations (hit both directions), on-course mechanic support, SAG vehicles, and medical staffing along the full route.

Is there a cutoff time?

Yes — a turnaround cutoff at Valentine keeps every rider off the course before dark. Riders who don't reach the turnaround by the cutoff are swept back by SAG. Exact time to be confirmed and communicated to registrants ahead of race day.

What's the weather like in October?

Kingman in mid-October typically runs sunny, with daytime highs in the low 80s°F and cooler mornings in the 50s°F. Dress in layers for the start.

What's your refund policy?

Registration is non-refundable and non-transferable. The event will only be canceled for inclement weather.

Do I need to sign anything?

Yes — every rider accepts a liability waiver, a photo/video release, and the event Code of Conduct during registration.

Can I register by mail instead of online?

Yes, if received by September 1. Email info@activeaz.org for instructions.

I'm an Active Arizona member — do I get a discount?

Yes, members save 10%. Email info@activeaz.org for your code.

Can I volunteer instead of riding?

Absolutely — Cycle AZ 66 runs on volunteers at aid stations, course marshaling, and day-of logistics. Email info@activeaz.org to get involved.

Who's putting this on?

Cycle AZ 66 is produced by Active Arizona — the statewide coalition that's championed Arizona cyclists since 2002 — in partnership with CONTEXT and the I Heart Route 66 Festival.
