The 4th Torino-Nice rally - Entry process (Now closed!)
This contact/entry form was closed on the evening of Saturday the 12th Jan. Postcards can arrive any time until 20th Feb.
Posted 5th Jan - This is how the entry process is going to work. It’ll be a bit different to last year’s entry. Slower and more lo-fi this time, a bit like the ride itself for many of us.
Process was follows, based on where you're from –
1) For the relatively low but very welcome numbers of riders travelling from the USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand or Asia, (edit to add, and Africa, yes, just had one enquiry!) etc – You go ahead and get flights booked and I’m guaranteeing your places now. The earlier you can get flights booked the better, I get that. The wider the attendance, the better the ride for us all and it’s amazing that riders will travel all that way to ride Euro Gravel TM
What you need to do – just email me names and contact details for all riders in your group before the end of February (ish) and you're in.
2) European riders - you’re (we’re) the majority and need to enter in the following way -
Entry for all is 'free', as always. There will be a £1 payment needed to formalise the entry terms, same as last year. That aspect will be handled once the entry list is created after the draw. So, pretty much free.
Rally patches and brevet cards will be available in return for donations to Smart Shelter Foundation as usual. The info about that will be on here at the end of Feb once places are allocated. This year the turnaround will be faster as the entry can happen earlier in the year.
Thanks for reading, good luck and thanks for understanding why it's happening this way – feels better than a race to fill out a form at midnight on a set date, it’s certainly better for me than having a mountain of email to manage!

- You'll have filled out the form that was below here until the evening of 12th Jan - if not, sorry... but there will be a 5th TNR next year.
- At the end of Feb postcards will be drawn out for the 160 ride spots on the TNR. There is no reserve list (it’s a real headache to manage tbh) so if you enter and get a spot but aren’t committed to riding, you’re simply taking a place from someone else. I understand that things come up and not everyone will make it, that’s OK. Just please be as committed as you can to being there before posting your entry.
- Last point - please give it a few weeks before emailing and asking if the postcard turned up ... I won't be able to reply and check easily but I will email you to confirm receipt, and pass comment on the quality of the card where suitable :) when it arrives.

Non-entry info needed? ask a q here.
eg Route information requests - If you have the TNR route in mind for a trip this year I'm happy to share route information and notes on current conditions, to answer any questions about the route or offer general tips, etc. Perhaps consider making a donation to SSF, the cause, if it's all helpful to your planning. It's not conditional on donations at all, just a valued return on the time that goes into making the rally happen and keeping the info up to date.
Please note / just to confirm - this is not an entry form : )
