Rules
This event is the fifth race in the Texas XC Mountain Bike State Championship Series, and TMBRA Spring XC Series Rules and Regulations apply (https://www.tmbra.org/wp/rules-and-regs/).
TMBRA race plates:
TMBRA permanent number plates will be used. If you don’t have one or have lost a previously assigned plate, you can purchase one during your online race registration process (separate question after selecting your race category).
Every race participant must utilize a 2025 TMBRA season race plate for race scoring and timing. After registering for an event, you will be asked about your season plate status. If you pre-purchased your plate through the TMBRA.org website or you picked up a plate at a previous event, then put your number in the box provided. Otherwise, select “Yes, assign a NEW plate.” if you do not already have one. A one-time $15 charge will be added to your event registration fee if you select a “yes” answer.
Number pickup/racer check-in starts at 7:00 AM on Sunday, April 13, 2025.

Is anyone else having trouble pulling up the results or overall standings? Every race I click on says “loading config failed”
Try clicking on the “series results” link on the results tab on this website. I just checked it and it worked for me.
Quick question, I registered/paid for the over 50 CAT 3 male group which race begins around noon. Can I pick up my packet at 1000 does it have to be at 0700?
Anytime before the start of your race.
I saw a photographer thru the course during the race. Anyone knows when and where pics will be published or posted for purchase??
I believe they were posted on our TMBRA group page on Facebook
