Where Can I Park?
All parking in downtown Bethany Beach is free the weekend of the Ocean to Bay Bike Tour. There is no designated parking for event participants. See a Bethany Beach parking map here.
Will there be onsite registration?
The Ocean to Bay Bike Tour is expected to sell out. There will not be onsite registration to ensure all rest stops are properly supported with accurate counts. Online registration closes April 24th.
What do I need for packet-pick up?
All participants must show a photo ID and provide a signed, “wet-ink” waiver at packet pick up.
If picking up for a team or for a friend, please show their photo ID (either original or a photo) and turn in their signed “wet-ink” waiver. No electronic signatures permitted.
Why do I need a “wet-ink” waiver?
We understand that turning in a “wet-ink” waiver is antiquated and cumbersome. However, the insurance provider requires it. If we do not have your wet-ink waiver, you will not be covered by the event insurance (USA Cycling).
What does my registration include?
Your registration packet will include:
- Bib(s)
- Safety pins
- Route Map & Cue Sheet
- Safety information

What if I have registered and have become injured or can no longer attend the event?

How do I transfer my ride to another person?

Can I pick up extra cue sheet to ride these routes throughout the year?
Yes. Extra cue sheets will be available at the end of the ride, while supplies last. We ask that you wait until all routes have begun to take extra cue sheets. Additionally, all route maps will be available on oceantoabybiketour.com.
Where can I stay?
Please visit our preferred accommodation list for room blocks and rider discounts.
How do I purchase a Voler jersey?
Pre-ordered Jerseys need to be purchased by March 28th to ensure they arrive in time for the ride. Jerseys are available and can be ordered through the Chamber website with a shipping fee to be delivered to your home.
Can I buy an additional shirt?
Yes. Pre-order your additional shirt online before April 1st to guarantee sizing. Extra shirts may be available after registration pickup. All shirts not picked up at registration will be sold (not held). Please arrange for pickup Friday, April 28 between 12:00PM-7:00PM or Saturday 7:00AM-9:00AM.
Bike Tour shirts from previous years will be available to purchase as well (limited sizes available)
Why is there no alcohol available at the end of the ride?
Town permitting does not allow for alcohol distribution outside of establishments. Please visit the awesome restaurants in surrounding area for your Bike Tour “refreshment.”
