STARTING PROCEDURE
Race Starts (both USAC and UCI): Standard UCI protocol will be followed, with the Chief Referee responsible for
starting the race. The start will be as follows: A notice will be given at one minute to start and 30 seconds to start. The
start signal (gunshot or whistle) may be given at any point after this last warning. Start Lights will be used for the World
Cup. Other races will commence in waves at 30-second to 1-minute intervals (referees discretion). All riders will finish
on the leader’s lap but may be finishing on an earlier lap then the leader if they were lapped or are nearly lapped. Listen

STAFF MEMBER IMMEDIATELY IF THIS HAPPENS.
Page 30PIT AREA
Te great guys at Shimano will be offering Neutral Support for all riders and races
regardless of category. No spectators or family members are allowed in the pit. Absolutely
no media personnel or photographers are allowed in the pit. For safety reasons, all
mechanics in the pit must be there for support reasons only, not for photography.
UCI PIT PASS
Each UCI rider is allowed TWO mechanics in the pit area. A valid UCI license is required for all mechanics and MUST be
confirmed at time of registration. Pit passes are distributed at registration. All UCI mechanics are required to wear their
pit pass bracelet and keep visible to race officials at all times. No pass, no access to the pit. We have a green bracelet Pit

FEEDING
Per the UCI regulation, Feeding and hand-ups are not permitted. No exceptions.
LAPPED RIDERS
For UCI Elite events, lapped riders will be pulled according to UCI regulations. Lapped riders will be pulled in accordance
with a time percentage (80%) slower than the lead rider. This is to ensure the safety of the lead riders and also ensure
that lapped riders do not inadvertently affect the race outcome by hindering either the lead rider or those in pursuit.
Riders that are pulled MUST leave the course when and where instructed.
For USAC events, officials will be instructed NOT to pull lapped riders. However, slower riders MUST give way to riders
overtaking them. If safety or obstructive issues arise because a lapped rider fails to give way, the lapped rider may be
pulled at the discretion of the Chief Referee.

This area is for Pro Teams Only and is also sponsored by our friends at Muc-Off

ANTI-DOPING
The organizers and staff of the Jingle Cross are strong advocates for the missions of the USADA and WADA. All USAC
and UCI riders regardless of category are subject to UCI/USADA Anti-Doping Examination Regulations and all
competitors and team personnel must abide by these regulations. Any riders with a non-negative test result (following
any adjudication process) will forfeit any prizes won at Jingle Cross. Jingle Cross, Inc., USAC, and the UCI officials have
no role in the USADA and WADA directives. Therefore, riders must check at the Anti-doping location ON THEIR OWN
to see if they have been selected for testing. Testing will be inside the Fairgrounds Administration building adjacent to
the START line (see map). REGARDLESS OF YOUR PLACE OR YOUR EVENT, IT IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE
RIDER TO CHECK WITH DOPING CONTROL FOLLOWING THEIR RACE. The list of riders required to report for doping
control will be posted PRIOR to the finish of each race. All USAC and UCI riders must follow UCI procedures for doping
control. Any rider selected for testing but who fails to present themselves for testing could be considered a positive
result. These regulations are entirely handled by the USADA and/or WADA and Jingle Cross, Inc. has no jurisdiction or
say in this matter.
AWARDS
Page 34UCI C1 AND C2: PODIUM, GREEN ROOM, AND FLASH INTERVIEW AREA
All UCI men’s and women’s races are televised. Top finishers and selected athletes must IMMEDIATELY proceed to the
FLASH INTERVIEW area. On camera interviews will be conducted by the GCN and Eurosport for the C1 and C2 events.
A multitude of media will interview for the World Cup. A green room for the UCI Pro riders will be provided directly
behind the podium for the UCI events. Top 3 athletes from both the men’s and women’s UCI events should report to the
Green Room immediately after the flash interview for changing and then report to the podium for awards. Towels and
water will be provided. UCI riders shall remain in the podium area briefly after the ceremony for interviews. Riders
should then report to the press conference and doping control as required.
U23 PODIUM FOR JINGLE CROSS
A U23 Podium for both the men’s and women’s UCI C1 and C2 races will be held for recognition and photo purposes
only. There are no awards delivered during the c1 and c2 podium. There will be U23 podium for the Telenet UCI World
Cup Women but there will not be one for the men.
USAC AMATEUR AND UCI 17-18
The top 3 riders from the Junior 17-18 men and women UCI races on Friday and Saturday and all USAC races will have
their podiums approximately 1 hour after their race has concluded. A schedule will be followed as close as possible but
results are determined by the officials and a mandatory protest period must be allowed before results are final. Please
be patient with this process. For the USAC categories, our TOP 3 Overall winners from the point’s competition must
present themselves at the podium following their finish on Sunday, September 15th. Please wear team gear for the
overall podium. DO NOT EXPECT TO INCLUDE YOUR BIKE ON THE PODIUM FOR PHOTOS. It is disrespectful to other
riders and teams and will not be tolerated.

primary interview opportunity for the media.
