The epic and prestigious Uriarra Roubaix returns!

One of the best races of the ACT region cycling calendar where instead of cobbles we introduce dust, ruts and loose sand. Wheel out your gravel bike (or better yet just pump up your tyres), harden your body and mind and challenge yourself with the 2022 Uriarra Roubaix!

Volunteer FAQ

Can I volunteer for a race later in the season, but claim my free race now?

You are expected to complete your volunteer duty on the date(s) you nominate in the season. If you've nominated and been assigned to volunteer at a race in the future you can still claim the appropriate benefits before you've volunteered.

Can I volunteer and race on the same day?

Race Director, Assistant Race Director, Turn Marshall, & FIrst Aid: You cannot race on the day you perform your duty unless you arrange for someone else (ie a friend or relative) to perform your duty on your behalf (must be as capable and willing as you are).

Other Roles (check-in desk, set up, pack up, van/trailer driver etc): You are welcome to volunteer and race on the same day. Just make sure you arrive at the race with enough time to do your job. Once that's done then get ready and race.

How do I claim my benefits?

Once you've been allocated to a race(s), we'll send you a special code that you'll plug into EntryBoss each time you register.
