Why do we need the safety gear?

The course will take in live roads during night-time hours, so you must be visible to traffic at all times.

You are only visible to drivers closer the 200 feet away in dark conditions, but with an approved reflective vest this increases to up to 1200 feet, and with headlamps and flashing LED taillights, visibility and safety increases further.

Detailed safety information can be found in the Race Bible.
