Any chance you could change the bikereg site to allow users to see the confirmed rider list so we can gage how fast it is filling up?

do you think day of registration will be available?

 

[downhill mike]

I believe all norba races have to offer licenses for sale at their events (annual or 1 day). However, with large crowds on race day it's always best to get it online beforehand.

 

[Iridemtb]

Thanks for the help... 1 more question though please... What is the what is the difference between NORBA and UCI? Are they related? Confused... (I'm in the NBL for bmx but thats all)

UCI is the international cycling federation. Norba is the crappy US MTB federation, now to be called USA Cycling MTB I believe.

To race in the US, you need a norba license. To race internatinoally you need a UCi license (purchased through USA Cycling).

 

[jonKranked]

can a UCI license be used in the US (in lieu of a NORBA)? or is event by event? I've actually been wondering about this

A UCI international license though USAC includes both your domestic and international license. It is only available in certain categories (ie: no international beginner or semi pro) and costs something like $100 more.

 

[Iridemtb]

Thanks a lot! I went to register for a NORBA licensce on the USA cycling site, and it says "The server did not respond. Please try again."
I tried a couple times... Pretty annoying.

You sure you can get a licensce at Duryea? If you can, that's what I'm doing.

 

[jonKranked]

apparently the usa cycling site is having issues... an headline dated yesterday is on the main page about it...

thanks for the info, much appreciated.

 

[Iridemtb]

So you can register @ duryea, right?

 

[jonKranked]

i'm not sure about the licenses, I know all actual race registration is done online (pre-reg). There will be no on site, day of race registration.

Yes there will be a "norba" USAC official on site to sign people up for license.

 

[Iridemtb]

Thanks for the help guys, really appreciate it.

 

[Iridemtb]

Sorry, I know I asked wayyy to many questions... Hopefully this will be my last 1. I just got on the site... www.bikereg.com

I was registering and came to this: it says

USA Cycling License #[---fill out box---] format '12345 or 'ONE DAY'

What do I do? I want to get the lisence there for NORBA, but I can't fill it out and its a required field for the form.

Or is one day meaning you will get your license there? Please help once again.

 

[Iridemtb]

What I mean is... Is 'One Day' just a substitute (on the form) for your license until you get one at Duryea?

 

[Iridemtb]

nevermind, problem solved
