Update Regarding COVID-19 Outbreak
Due to the extension of Michigan Shelter in Place Order and the suspension of all USA Cycling Race Permits through May 31st, Downriver Cycling Club is left with no choice other than to cancel MGST and Willow Time Trial for 2020. We explored options for rescheduling both but could not find a suitable date in 2020 due to prior commitments at our venue, Willow Metropark.
Due to expenses incurred to date planning both events, we are unable to offer refunds to either event. Instead, we will be rolling over registrations to next year's events on the dates listed below:
For those of you that ordered shirts or additional breakfast pacakges for the MGST, we will be refunding those purchases over the next few weeks.
Your registration to this year's event also included a basic DCC membership for 2020 and we're extending that through 2021. With that you are entitled to participate in all DCC Club events like group rides, clinics, picnics, and the annual club banquet. We hope that you can take advantage of the many benefits our club has to offer.
