any adjustments necessary).

will be awarded for this race! Riders who are not Montana USAC/USCF
members will be timed and can compete for monetary prizes, but not state

Race
Location. From
west of Belgrade: take the Belrgrade exit off I-90 and head north into town.
Turn right on Broadway and go straight through the 4-way stop in the old
downtown. Broadway sweeps left about ¾
of a mile past the 4-way stop, and the ball fields are just ahead on your
left. From Bozeman or East of Belgrade:
take the Bridger Bowl exit off of I-90 (west end of Bozeman), head east on
Frontage road until you hit the 4-way stop in downtown Belgrade. Turn right onto Broadway at the stop, proceed
about ¾ of a mile to the ball fields on your left.
The
course: is
a 20 or 40km (depending on category) out-and-back time trial. Pavement is in good condition with variable
width shoulders, mixed new pavement, older pavement and year-old chip seal.
Some minor road hazards are marked with paint. Generally flat and fast with a
few gradual grades (less than 2%). The
road will be open to traffic, and racers will be required to obey all traffic
laws at all times – this includes, but is not limited to: staying to the right
except to pass other riders, and yielding to vehicular traffic at the
turn-around.
