Mountain Biking & Kayaking Verification Process

To ensure the ongoing success of our programs and to maximize partipation, we’ve instituted a Verification System for Mountain Biking (MTB) and Kayaking (KYK).

Automatic Verification

All participants will start as VERIFIED. They may sign up for programs through as they wish.

Reminder Emails

All registered participants will receive a reminder email three days before their event:

  • MTB (Saturday): email sent by Wednesday 10 AM

  • KYK (Sunday): email sent by Thursday 10 AM

What You Need to Do

If you’re attending: no action needed.

If you’re not attending: cancel by email before:

  • MTB: by Thursday 6 PM

  • KYK: by Friday 6 PM

This lets us offer your spot to someone else.

If You Cancel Late

If you cancel after the deadline, you’ll lose your VERIFIED status.

After that, you must confirm your spot by email each time you receive a reminder.

You will regain VERIFIED status after attending three events.

NO-SHOWS

If you miss an event without cancelling:

  • You’ll lose VERIFIED status for two months.

  • Two no-shows  =  two-month suspension from all DMWTD events.

PUNCTUALITY

All events start on time. If you miss the safety demo due to lateness, you cannot participate and will lose VERIFIED status.

Cross-Platform Policy

Loss of VERIFIED status applies to both MTB and KYK. 

The three events to restore status can be from either activity.

Waitlist Policy

If a spot opens, you’ll be notified and must confirm by email within a set time. 

If you don’t reply, the spot goes to the next person. 

Note: VERIFIED status does not apply to waitlist offers.
