One rider registers with their teammate’s name, birthday and email.

Refunds, transfers and deferrals

We understand things come up and plans change, and we do our best to give you a flexible refund and deferral program. The OZ Stage Race is a complex, large-scale multi-day event: we enter into numerous pre-event contracts with cities, venues, caterers, entertainment producers and ride support teams.

November 1, 2026 - February 28, 2027

Riders from any category may receive a full refund minus a 15% admin fee. Refunds usually process within 3-5 business days.

March 1 - May 15, 2027

Any category participant may transfer their entry to another rider within the same category for no additional fee. Participants who wish to withdraw their entry may defer their fee as a credit toward 2028.

After May 15, 2027

Due to the complexity of this event, we cannot honor deferral requests received after May 15, 2027 unless proof of extenuating circumstances is provided.

Four days. One long weekend.

Registration opens November 1, 2026 at 8 AM Central.
