ROCK CREEK RALLY IS CANCELLED. WE APOLOGIZE, OUR PERMIT WAS DENIED BY WASHINGTION COUNTY. THESE INDIVIDUALS WILL ONLY ALLOW BICYCLE RACES DISPITE OUR COMPLETION OF ALL REQUIREMENTS INCLUDING INSURANCE, RESIDENT APPROVAL, AND MANY VOLUNTEER POLICE, MEDICAL STAFF, AND RACE WORKERS. WE'VE PUT A LOT OF WORK INTO ORGANIZING THIS CHARITY RACE AND ARE PISSED TO SAY THE LEAST. SO WE ARE STARTING NOW TO GET 'ER DONE FOR NEXT YEARS ALONG WITH A RACE IN PORTLAND. WE HOPE THIS DOESN'T INCONVIENCE ANY PLANS MADE BY RACES OR SPECTATORS. PLEASE LET US KNOW IF WE CAN HELP IN ANY WAY.
THE EASTSIDE ROLLERS
Welcome to one of many smooth and windy roads of Hillsboro, Oregon. The road is freshly paved 0.8 miles long with one inside banked right-hand hairpin turn almost 270 degrees. This major turn will be haybailed along with the finish line sweeper. Definately an easy course for new racers and still challenging enough for the most seasoned riders. Top speeds of 35 to 40mph will be reached. The course will be closed to through traffic by Washington County on race day from 7am to 4pm. Absolute NO RIDERS may run the course prior to this event. PLEASE RESPECT the local residents that do not want anyone on their road prior to the event. During the race these residents will be allowed to come in and/or leave their property and thus the course will be closed during this time and resumed when cleared. Violators will be disqualified and entry fees will not be returned.
Rock Creek Rally is a charity event with proceeds going to the Annie Ross House for the homeless in the Portland area.

Race Format and Requirements:
All riders will have a prior equipment inspection including checking the board for any possible danger to other riders or spectators. All racers must wear a full-face helmet with a motorsport rating of any of the following:
SNELL M95 if the helmet is not more than 10 years old (ie '96), M2000 or M2005, DOT, ECE-22,BCI. These ratings are tested to more than twice the standard as a B rated SNELL helmet. A B95 or any B rating are for bicycles and will not pass inspection, nor will any non motor sport rated helmet. Also full pads or leathers are required for racing. If any of these are not met to our satisfaction, the racer will not be allowed to participate.
Board Restrictions:
All racing boards must have ONLY 4 WHEELS, weigh less than 30 pounds, no taller than 8", and be totally stock without any add-ons of tape, plastic, foam or any other material or wind type ferrings on the board.
Each racer gets one practice run prior to the first qualifing round. This run may be taken alone or with a group of their choice.
No timing system, we will RACE to QUALIFY in two 5 man heats.
Racers will be grouped randomly for the first of two qualifing rounds. Depending on their placing results, racers will be grouped into the second qualifing round of another 5 man heat. From the combination of these 2 placing results for each rider, they will each be given a qualifer ranking number and then put into a 4 man heat bracket system. From here we will run these 4 man heats with the top 2 from each heat going to the next round. The bottom 2 in each heat will be illiminated. After the 1st round, the advancing racers will race each other in the 2nd round. Depending on how many racers entered will determine how many rounds until the Semi-finals and Final Championship Heat.
