Participation is Limited – Due to local COVID reopening restrictions field limits of 30 have been placed on each category.  Plan ahead, sign up early, and if a field is full make sure you reserved a spot on the waiting list. ​​The waiting list is being used to help us plan ahead, add riders to the start list and potentially add more fields to the event. 
The Race: ​Independence Valley Road Race is better known as IVRR and is located in Rochester WA, 90 minutes from Seattle and Portland.  For 15 years this event has been one of the most anticipated spring classics in the Northwest.  Racers enjoy the 19.5 mile loop with rolling hills, roads that twist through the Valley’s farmland and a couple of short climbs that rider pass to switch from Valley to Valley. 

What changes should I expect due to COVID-19? 
  • Please arrive 45 to 60 minutes before your race.
  • If you have been feeling sick or ill play it safe and stay home to help stop the transmission of the COVID-19.
  • Everyone will be required to wear a face mask until they start their race.
  • Online registration only! We will not accept any day of race entries.
  • Participants will be required register online and complete the online waver.
  • All fields will be limited to 30 participants to comply with the phase 2 reopening restrictions.  
  • Everyone needs to respect local social distancing guidelines until the restrictions have been removed.  Don’t be the reason we lose our season.
