Registration, Awards and Prizes

e-Fondo Series events are free to enter. Riders who register for and compete in the e-Fondo Series are eligible to compete in the e-Fondo Series Points Competition to earn age group awards. Riders will also be automatically entered in a prize raffle for chances to win products from series sponsors. Athletes earn raffle tickets for each event they enter, so the more events riders enter, the more chances they have to win. 

SUAREZ Gran Fondo National Series Event Director, Reuben Kline, chose to create the e-Fondo Series with Wahoo X because of Wahoo RGT’s focus on realistic rider dynamics. He added, “We wanted the indoor and outdoor experiences to be as similar as possible, and realistic in-game physics is what Wahoo RGT does best. They were also excited to integrate our timed-section competition format, complete with on-screen graphics and tracking rider results over multiple segments and events.”

Riders can register for E-Fondo Series events for free.

Riders can register today for a free Wahoo X RGT account and get your legs ready to ride before the series begins.
