Delay and Cancel Decisions
Even though our steering committee has envisioned a beautiful summer day with light winds, sunshine and blue skies, we may not get what we want! So, we will make any necessary decision to DELAY or CANCEL the Bike Bemidji Loop the Lake Festival based on the National Weather Service (NOAA).

DELAY: rolling start will be delayed up to 2 hours if there is rain but the radar shows clearing within an hour or two, or if there is Watch or Warning that will expire.

CANCEL: If the miserable weather is “socked in” for the weekend we will cancel the event for this year.

Save by registering online with Zap Events until June 14, 2017 at 11:59 p.m. Paper registrations and same day registrations available for an additional fee. Prices increase on June 1, 2017.
