Registration is now officially open for Freezing Saddles 2021-COVID edition. The registration form is at this link, and the deadline for submitting it is December 24 at 11:59:59 pm. As usual (and unavoidably), the process is a little complicated, especially for newbies. However, you’ve got two options for figuring it all out.
- The registration form itself takes you step by step through what you need to do, if you read all of it. This list is also repeated on the “Success” page you get to after registering, and in the e-mail you will get confirming your registration. (Really, we are quite thorough in explaining it all!)
- Below is a list you can refer to, with a link for each step.
The list is as follows:
- Fill in the registration form.
- Click on the link in the confirmation e-mail you will receive, giving us permission to send you e-mails. This e-mail may go to your Promotions, Social, junk, or spam folder, so please check there if it does not arrive. If you do not find it anywhere, you will need to send a private message to cvcalhoun, so that she can add you manually and your registration does not get canceled.
- Register for the Washington Area Bike Forum.
- Make at least one post on the Washington Area Bike Forum. if you have nothing in particular you want to say or respond to, you can use this thread[FONT=&] to make a post introducing yourself. [/FONT]
- Register for Strava.
- Authorize Freezing Saddles to read your Strava miles.
- Join the Freezing Saddles 2021 Strava club.
- Watch the Washington Area Bike Forum in early January for team assignments.
As in past years, if you have participated before and want to be a Friend of BAFS (formerly known as Slacker) but not on a team this year, please do not register. Just do steps 6 and 7, above. If you do those things, once teams are chosen, you will automatically show up as a Friend of BAFS.

Sorry, fixed!
November 20, 2020 at 1:21 am #1106821BobCochranParticipantI think I registered properly. This year, I even got both the expected emails upon submitting the registration form.
Thanks so much
Bob

I’m glad it was easy for you. We try to make it that way, consistent with getting the information and permissions we need. But do you even want to know how many people in past years have found it impossible?
November 20, 2020 at 2:02 pm #1106832karenbikes2ParticipantLooking forward to being part of this!
November 20, 2020 at 9:39 pm #1106843tarachestonParticipantI flaked out a couple years ago due to insufficient cycling gear, but I am back and ready for this year! Wheeee!
November 23, 2020 at 4:10 pm #1106908bmillahParticipantDone!
Q: Is it possible to hate winter but love Freezing Saddles?
November 23, 2020 at 9:24 pm #1106913ClayParticipantBring on some cold miles in 2021.
ClayNovember 28, 2020 at 7:03 am #1106964cvcalhounParticipantAnd we are now up to 120 registrations! Just a reminder that if you are on the fence about registering, or want to invite your friends, the deadline is December 24.
December 8, 2020 at 6:57 pm #1107102Sophie CWParticipantThanks, I’ve registered for the first time.
