Frequently Asked Questions
Can someone else pick up my packet for me? Yes. You will need to send them with a signed waiver. You can download and print that here.
How do I sell/transfer my registration? http://www.goldilocksride.com/2012/04/faqs-about-the-transfer-of-a-registration/
Is there packet pickup the morning of the event? Yes. We will have emergency packet pickup on Saturday morning at Butterfield Park for those who could not make it any other time. Please arrive a half hour before your start time in case there is a line. Please do not pick up your packet before that time, unless there is no line. We hate to have a line of 60 mile riders that prevents a 100 mile rider from picking up their packet and starting on time.
Where is Butterfield Park? W & M Butterfield Park 6212 Butterfield Park Way, Herriman, Utah 84096
What time should I arrive? Please arrive at the park at least a half hour before your start time. That will give you time to get your gear ready, fill your water bottles, and be ready to go.
Can I leave earlier than my start time? Yes, but we would rather you didn’t. We cannot guarantee that all rest stops on your route will be open by the time you arrive.
Where do I park? Goldilocks riders will park in the rodeo grounds next to the park, not the paved parking lot. There will be nice Papa Bears there ready to park you Disneyland style and direct you to the pavilion.
BATHROOMS? The pavilion at Butterfield Park has lots of lovely flushing potties for you ladies to use before you begin your ride. You don’t have to line up to use the one in the Rodeo grounds… (although you are welcome to use it) come on in to the party and the pavilion and use the bathroom there. All the stops have glamorous, clean PINK porta potties.
Will roads be closed? Police will hold traffic as each wave of riders leave the park. They will continue to do this until participants are spaced out enough to ride comfortably single file. If you are arriving at the park when a wave of riders is leaving, you may be stopped by police for a few minutes as the ladies ride past. (Be sure to cheer, but not honk. (: ) Please remember when you are riding, you are a vehicle on the road and follow all traffic signs and signals.
What food will be served at the rest stops? All the rest stops will be stocked with fresh fruit, bananas and oranges, Swedish fish, pretzels, wheat thins, popcorn, hard candy, fig newtons, oreos, licorice, and a pb&j buffet. Water and Gatorade. Love and Encouragement.
Can I exchange my shirt for a different size? Yes. If your shirt doesn’t fit, or we gave you the wrong size, please bring it to the event. We will be happy to exchange it there for one that is ‘just right’.
Will there be ‘ditch bags’ at the stops? Yes. Dress warm in the morning knowing you can leave your gear at any of our stops and we will return it to the finish line for you.
Can I change my mileage? Yes. Just pick up the appropriate wrist band or map at packet pickup or the morning of the event.
What if I need help? Have a flat? Broken chain? Tired bum or legs? There is a phone number on the back of our maps (801-505-1925 or 801-446-6247) that will connect you with our Papa Bear dispatch. Give them a call and they will come and rescue you!

Hi, I am registered for the Idaho ride and ordered a jersey in size medium. I think I should go with a large instead. How can I go about making this change?

Hi Jean,
I cannot find an order for a jersey with your name on it… is it under a different name? Did you order as a part of your registration or from the shop?
Thank you!

7ish inches. One size fits most, but we are happy to make a custom length if you need it.

I was wondering if you have any 2012 jerseys or even 2011 jerseys around that you are trying to sell off? If so, where can I find them? Thanks!

Will the items for sale on the shopping page be available to purchase the day of the race?
I ordered/received the 3xl jersey and it is way to small. I could handle it if it were just too tight, but it won’t stay down, it rolls up and bunches at my waist. I live in Provo, can I return it somewhere?
Thanks
