Über die Veranstaltung

We are trying something different for the Rock Oil Foliage Frenzy.  The plan for this event is to slow down, enjoy the ride and not “race.”  We want you to come to the Oil Region and experience the amazing Fall Foliage.  Thus here is the event format:

Just like the Roughneck we will start and finish at the Titusville Ironworks, with registration again on Friday night.  There will be no BMX track finish for this event.  Start time for both distances will be 8:30 a.m.  Part of the reason we are doing this event is get you all to slow down, have fun on gravel, while enjoying the fall foliage.  The event will be run a “Poker Run Style.”  What is a Poker Run you ask?  Well this is a very traditional event by motorcycles and ATV's in the NWPA region.  

 

100KM Poker Run:  The route will be approximately 100km, riders will have 7 hours to complete the route from GUN time.  There will be 7 stops on your route, these will be marked and have water and other nutrition at them.  At each stop you will receive 1 random playing card.  You will be playing what is referred to as 7 card draw, this means you will play your best 5 of 7 cards to create your best possible 5 card poker hand.  If you can sustain a 8.5 MPH or faster pace, this route will be ok for you.  If you cannot please consider the shorter route.

40 Mile Poker Run:  This route will be approximately 40 miles, riders will have 7 hours in which to complete this.  Riders of the 40 mile will pass through 5 stops and will be playing 5 card stud.  Your 5 cards are your poker hand.

TANDEMS:  This question has come up and it is a fair question.  Teams who wish to enter as a tandem bike to ride, will be allowed 1 card per participant on the tandem.  We will instruct volunteers to mark your cards as to ensure you each play your hand.  

Tie Breakers Both Routes:  For all tie breakers if 2 riders end up with the same hand, we will play 1 hand of Black Jack 21 to determine the Winner.  

 

Card Stops:

Please note the cards stops will have water, electrolyte mix and other misc. food and nutrition.  However, if there are specific foods you want or have food allergies we do encourage you to bring your own.  

 

Route Marking:

We will mark all the routes.  Similar to the Roughneck we will mark turns and if there is an intersection where you shouldn't turn, we will have a straight arrow.  All participants are encouraged to download the route and ensure they can self-navigate.  We hope no-one tampers with the signs, however we cannot guarantee this.

 

Please note while this is not a race and we do want to encourage you all to slow down and enjoy the scenery.  We still have to consider everyone's safety ad volunteers being on course and at the card stops.  We will call volunteers in at 7 hours, this means if you haven't picked up a card up at a station, you will not get one.  However, as long as it is safe and you comfortable riding we will not require you to head back to town.  We will allow you to finish the course.

 

We hope you consider joining us for this non-traditional gravel event, and we look forward to seeing you for a fun weekend of playing bikes and having fun!

 

Safety Notes:

All riders are required to wear helmets, follow the rules of the road, and front and rear lights are always encouraged.

 

Other Notes: 

Please remember this event is Rain or Shine and does not offer refunds or deferment.
