Unless otherwise instructed at the riders meeting, riders must not ride more than 25 feet from the course marking arrows. If two arrows are positioned on each side of the route, riders must remain between the arrows. Riders can be allowed to walk or ride bicycles on the final course prior to the start of the event.
