POLICIES Rider Conduct Riders should remember at all times that they are representa-tives of their sponsors, USA Cycling (USAC), and the race’s sponsors and conduct themselves appropriately. Silver City is a rural area and local residents are not used to large numbers of cyclists. Traffic rules are to be obeyed at all times. All roads are open to traffic, except during the criterium. Ride as safely and courteously as possible and obstruct traffic as little as possible. Riders will wear approved safety helmets at all times when rid-ing, including warm-up, for the entire duration of the race. Riders are strongly encouraged to wear a helmet at all times when rid-ing in the Silver City area. Riders will be courteous to the many volunteers who are donating their time and effort to allow this race to happen.

Awards Jerseys will be awarded daily. Winners’ bowls will be handed out on Sunday at Pinos Altos Opera House in the village of Pinos Altos. Cash awards (bank checks) will be mailed to each team using the information provided by the team manager. No cash awards will be handed out on Sunday.

Race Numbers Only the race numbers provided by the race committee may be worn. Numbers may not be folded or trimmed. Numbers should be worn on the lower back, to be read horizontally.

Road Closure UCI Men will have rolling closure for riders in contention and will be permitted to use the entire road except on four lane roads where they are restricted to the right side. Riders outside the police envelope must obey the centerline rule and stay as far right as practical. NM 15 from Pinos Altos to the intersection of NM 35 will be closed for the Thursday and Sunday races.

SUPPORT CREWS & FEED ZONES

General Feed zones for the road race locations are clearly marked on the course descriptions. Beginning and end of feed zones will be marked by signs. All feeding will take place in these desig-nated zones. Directions to feed zones are in course descrip-tions. Please follow those directions. Support crews should posi-tion and conduct themselves in feed zones and en route to feed zones and finishes so as not to endanger other race participants or bystanders. Neutral water will be provided in all feed zones and the finish lines at each road race. Check course descrip-tions for locations.

Green Zones From 200m before each feed zone to the end of the feed zone are designated green zones for the discarding of bottles and other trash.

EMERGENCY INFORMATION

We hope everyone has a safe race and stay in Silver City. How-ever, should you require emergency medical attention during the race, paramedics will be available at various locations along the courses. Law enforcement and/or official support vehicles fol-lowing the race should be able to notify paramedics if needed. At other times, in the Silver City area call 911 for emergency help. Riders requiring medical transport will be taken to:

Gila Regional Medical Center 1313 E. 32nd Street Silver City, New Mexico 88061 phone (575) 538-4000

In extreme cases, riders may be transported outside of Grant County. For information, please contact our Medical Director, Mike McMillan, 575-538-1259.

GILA REGIONAL MEDICAL CENTER We, here at in the Emergency Department (ED) at Gila Regional Medical Center, are proud to be serving Silver City and the surrounding area, and are dedicated to excellence in patient care. We wish all participants in the 2019 Tour of the Gila, a safe and exciting time while you are in Grant County. In the event that you require the services of our Emergency Department and Providers, there are a few things that you should be aware of and have with you in order for us to provide you with the best care possible. Please have with you:

- proper identification - health insurance coverage information, if applicable - current medication list that includes the dose and how often you take it - a list of any adverse side effects or allergies to medications that you have experienced in the past - information about any physical health problems - names and contact information for your primary care provider and medical specialists

With such an amazing event in our community, please understand that we may be experiencing higher volumes of patients, and there may be a longer wait time. Triage is the process of prioritizing sick or injured people for treatment according to the seriousness of the condition or injury. When you see the triage nurse, a decision is made about the seriousness, or “acuity” of your problem, and patients are prioritized per this triage process. When the Emergency Department is very busy, the more serious problems are seen first. This creates a wait for some patients - we want you to understand why, at times, patients may have to wait longer than anticipated to see a provider. PLEASE, if you are a patient here in the ED, DO NOT EAT OR DRINK ANYTHING UNTIL CLEARED BY A PROVIDER. If you require surgery, eating and drinking anything will delay your care. Our mission is to provide our patients exceptional quality, patient-centered care in a healing environment. We want to make your visit the most pleasant experience possible.

Start Procedure: 9:05 am. 92 miles(148km). Begin at Gough Park in Silver City and end near the ghost town of Mogollon. Parking is available on the side streets near Gough Park. Sign-in near the start line. Assemble for an-nouncements 10 minutes before your start. Race will take a 2.1 mile(3.4 km) neutral parade through downtown Silver City and up Market St. to US 180. Port-a-potties will be placed near the start and finish line. Stage Notes: 2 feed zones. 2 bonus sprints - time bonuses for 1st, 2nd and 3rd, cash award for 1st and sprinter points for 1st, 2nd and 3rd. Finish line - One Cat 1 KOM. Time bonuses for 1st, 2nd & 3rd. . Technical Support: All technical support will be provided by Shimano and authorized team caravan vehicles. No other team vehicles are permitted. Team caravan vehicles will be under the direction of the commissaires. Course Description: This is a 92 mile (149km) point-to-point race with 4,252 feet(1,296meters) of climbing. After the start, take a 2.1 mile(3.4km) neutral parade through the town and then left onto US 180, a 2-lane road with wide shoulders. The first bonus sprint will be at 18.3 miles(29.5km). At 27.2. miles(43.8km) turn right in Cliff onto NM 211 and enter the first feed zone area on the hill. Neutral water is provided here. Continue on NM 211 through Gila, then on a narrower NM 211 with a few short steep rollers to the main highway. At 33.5 miles (53.9km) turn right on US 180 to Cliff again, completing the first of two 11.2 miles (18km) loop. Upon reaching Cliff, turn right for a second trip through the feed zone and around the loop. Continue on US 180 to the second bonus sprint at 57.5 miles(92.5km). Head to Glenwood at 81.5 miles(131.2km) and enter feed zone area at 82.5 miles (132.8km). Neutral water is pro-vided here. Turn right onto NM 159 at 85.3 miles (137.3km) and head toward the ghost town of Mogollon where the road narrows and climbing begins for the last 6.7 miles (10.8km). Cat 1 KOM finish at 92 miles (143km). Feed Zone Directions: There are 2 feed zones. One is passed twice providing 3 total chances to feed. Please pick up all trash in feed zones. Team caravan vehicles will be under the direction of the commissaires at all times. Support crews must leave before the race. From the start, the race heads south, but support crews should go north on Pope Street to traffic light at US 180, then left (west) and head toward Cliff to get ahead of the race. You will have 3 minutes to pass the point where the race enters on to US 180 at the top of Market Street. Proceed approximately 29.3 miles(47.2km) to Cliff and turn right on NM 211. Just past the corner on a hill is the feed zone. It will be marked. Feeders must park at the school and not on the slight hill. The race will pass through this feed zone twice so you have two opportunities to feed them. After feeding, retrace your route on NM 211 back to US 180 and turn right ahead of the race to Glenwood, a distance of approximately 32 miles (51.5km). A final feed zone will be marked on the hill leading out of Glenwood. After feeding here, please wait before proceeding to the base of the final climb. Do not attempt to pass any official race vehicles. You will not be allowed at the finish area. Stay at the base of the moun-tain (the intersection of US 180 and NM 159) and let your riders return to you. Finish Procedure: Only official race caravan vehicles will be allowed up to the finish area. Vehicles must have per-mission from an official to return to the base. This is a congested area, so drive slowly. Failure to do so will result in a penalty determined by the Race Jury. Riders’ support crews are to stop at the base of the final climb, at the intersec-tion of NM 159 and US 180. So don’t hurry to the area. Riders are to return to you. The finish line is 73.1 miles(117.6km) from Silver City. Bus transportation will be provided back to Silver City from the base of the climb at the intersection with US 180. Team Car Diversion: There is no turnoff before the finish area. Follow marshal directions to parking area. Anti-Doping Location: In a recreational vehicle at the finish area.
