Clarion Summer Festival 2025: Rail 66 Time Trial - Saturday June 7th

Online registration will be closed at Noon on Friday, June 6th or when we have reached the maximum number of participants, which is 75.  If there are still slots available, we will have day of paper registrations until 8:15 am Saturday, June 7th. Day of registration is $45.00 and there is no guarantee of a commemorative race day pint glass.

The Clarion Summer Outdoor Festival committee invites cyclists 16 years of age and older, who are in
good physical condition, to register to compete in an 11.5 mile, point-to-point, time-trial bike race, that
will begin at the Farmington Twp. Community Park in Leeper, PA; travel north along the Rail 66 bike
trail and finish next to Northwest Hardwoods, which is located about 1 mile south of the village of
Marienville, PA.  Racers will leave the starting line in 30 second intervals, beginning promptly at 8:30 AM.

Rail 66 is a 25 mile asphalt-paved bike trail that begins on Rt. 322 just west of Clarion and ends in the
village of Marienville. Although the 11.5 mile time-trial course does not cross any major highways, it does
cross 19 township roads, driveways and lanes along this ride, so the race committee will provide traffic
control at these intersections to ensure a safe crossing. Post-race refreshments will be provided by Janney
Montgomery Scott, LLC (Clarion office) at the finish line.

* A commemorative  race day pint glass is guaranteed to racers who register by Saturday, May 24, 2025.

* Age group (men's and women's) awards will be determined based on the number of participants per age group who have pre-registered.

* This is a point-to-point race, so riders will need to make arrangements for someone to pick them up at the finish, or they will need to ride their bikes back to the Community Park in Leeper.

RULES OF THE ROAD:
 All road, gravel, hybrid and mountain bikers are welcome, although finishing time will determine winners regardless of bike type.
 Helmets are required of all participants.
 Ear buds, headphones or any device that might impair hearing are prohibited.
 Motorized or Electric bicycles are prohibited, as this is an individual speed and endurance competition.
