Once the MX laps have been completed, riders will be directed to the transition area (top of the pits). Riders will leave dirt bikes on their stand and prepare their gear for the mountain bike section. Riders will exit the other end of transition with their mountain bike.
Once teammate # 1 completes the MX laps, he/she will be directed to the transition area (top of the pits). Riders will dismount their dirt bike at the bottom of the hill and walk their bike to their stand in transition.
