Please be respectful of the land, property boundaries, and facilities. The property owner has a legal right to control who is on their land and can call law enforcement for unauthorized presence.
There will also be other opportunities to ride prior to the race, so please follow SWMMBA social media accounts to learn about those opportunities.
