Just over a week out! Sign up to race or volunteer.

🚵‍♂️ HEY, WE NEED YOU! 🔥

It takes more than a bunch of bikes and brave riders to make the Hill of Truth 12-Hour Festival happen! We need some awesome volunteers to help keep the wheels turning! 🤘

Whether you’re a trail enthusiast, a race-day cheerleader, or just want to be part of the action, we’ve got a spot for you!

🙌 Ways to lend a hand:

10/23-10/25
* Friday: Event setup
* Saturday: Registration, course marshals, kids race & awards prep
* Sunday: Tear down

⏰ Shifts vary, so grab one that works for you!

🎁 VOLUNTEER PERKS! As a thank-you for helping out, snag a HOT race-day T-shirt OR water bottle!

You don’t have to race to be part of the HOT action. Sometimes the real trail heroes are the ones keeping the stoke alive from the sidelines! 🤘

👉 Sign up using the volunteer link and join the HOT crew!

HOT runs from 9 AM–9 PM, so later laps mean riding the course after dark. Make sure you have a solid lighting setup and are prepared for nighttime riding.

And remember — you don’t have to race for 12 straight hours! Chase the podium, race with a team, get in a few laps, hang out with friends, or cheer on the racers. Make HOT your own. 🤘

HOT is still the family-friendly festival we love, with a race course designed to bring a challenge this year. Know your skills, know your limits, and come ready for an awesome day at Haw Ridge!
