Revised 2022 Number Allocation Process

1/6/2022

0 Comments

 
Yes, there’s a new process for distributing the 2022 WSBA numbers!  Numbers are being sent directly to each member and many of you have already received yours.

This change is due to minimum quantity requirements from the manufacturer and the numerous challenges of teams distributing numbers to individual members. The manufacturer’s requirements also resulted in numbers being assigned without regard to category or gender. For 2022 the numbering sequence started in the low 100’s.

WSBA membership is not affiliated with the USAC membership and can be purchased via this link:
https://www.bikereg.com/wsba2022

Renew before January 30 to guarantee that your number will arrive in your mailbox prior to the first road event of 2022.   Renewals after January 30, 2022 are not guaranteed to have numbers in hand prior to the first road event.

0 Comments

 
Tips for Renewing Your WSBA Membership for 2022:
  • Renew or purchase your WSBA membership at https://www.bikereg.com/wsba2022
  • Membership is $30 for 2022.
    • SAVE $5.00 by renewing before December 11, 2021.
  • Verify your correct address with bikereg when you renew.
  • Your WSBA membership is separate from your USAC membership and is voluntary.
When You Renew Determines When You Receive Your Race Numbers:
  • Renew or purchase your WSBA membership by January 5, 2022, to receive your numbers by Mid-February 2022.
  • Renew or purchase your WSBA membership between January 6, 2022 and February 1, 2022 and receive your numbers by March 25, 2022.
Some Fine Print:
  • Race numbers will be sent to each team for members whose bikereg accounts indicate membership in that road team.  Team leaders will receive an email confirming the address on file for their team.  Please update the team information no later than January 15, 2022, to insure proper delivery of your team members’ numbers.  Numbers for members without a team affiliation will be individually mailed to the member’s address attached to your bikereg purchase.
  • Renewals received after February 1 and before March 10 will be shipped in late March.  For memberships purchased after April 30, allow at least 3 weeks to receive race numbers.  After June 1, new and renewing members should email joinwsba@gmail.com to indicate membership purchase or the membership may not be processed due to so few new members in this time frame.
  • Numbers returned due to incorrect addresses will be resent after all new memberships are processed. Any member whose numbers are returned for an incorrect address more than one time will be subject to a $5.00 handling fee.  Please verify your address on file with bikereg is correct when you renew.

Two for None Rebate Program

3/30/2021

1 Comment

 
Introducing the 2021 WSBA TWO FOR NONE race rebate program!
  • Do you remember how intimidating it was to line up for your FIRST bike race?
  • Do you remember the person who shepherded you to that first start line?
  • The most intimidating part of starting the bike race journey is lining up at one’s first event!
 
Bring a new rider to their first race and the WSBA will reimburse BOTH of your entry fees after the event has occurred.

Details:

Who counts as an existing rider? 
Anyone who has previously lined up for a race and is a 2021 DUES paying WSBA Member.

Who counts as a new rider/racer?
  • A new rider/racer is any rider who has never lined up for a bike race IN the specific bike race discipline and enters the novice/beginner category for the first time.
    • For example, a rider does their first mountain bike race & road race. Both events are eligible for the new rider to receive the rebate.
  • The WSBA will be reviewing each new rider name submission across numerous result platforms to confirm the new rider/racer meets this definition.
What events are eligible for this offer?
  • Any WSBA event that has a beginner/novice category including Master beginner categories.
    • WSBA event is defined as a bike event that is eligible to be included on the WSBA calendar. (Calendar eligibility can be found here.)
 
Do we both have to start the event?
  • Yes, both of you must start to race in your registered category. If one of you does not start the offer is no longer valid.
What about Stage Races?
  • Both riders will receive the value of the entry fee divided by number of stages.
  • Both riders MUST start the first stage of the event to be eligible for the prorated rebate.
What amount is rebated?
  • The only element of the event eligible for this offer is the actual ENTRY fee.
  • Riders are responsible for transaction fees, number rentals, one-day license fees (if required), parking, ferry fares, etc.
  • Only one rebate per experienced rider per entry fee. IE if you're brining two riders you need to race 2x for both of the new riders and yourself to be eligible for the rebate. 
How do we apply for the rebate?
  • Both riders must PRE-REGISTER
  • WSBA member must fill out this form prior to event day and include a copy of the registration receipts (showing amount paid) for both riders from the registration system.
 
When do we get reimbursed?
  • The WSBA will issue reimbursement within 10 days after the event to the paypal or venmo account each rider supplied on the entry form.
How long will this offer last?
  • We hope to extend this offer through the entire 2021 calendar year. However, if we are overwhelmed with submissions, we may create a Spring/Summer cutoff date as to have dollars available for the CX season.
