I signed up for the 1/4 DAM J.A.M., can I change to another route?

Yes you can. We utilize that information to help us plan how many riders will be on which route and for safety information, but the price is the same regardless of which distance you ride. Just let us know.

I can no longer make the ride, can I get a refund?

Since this ride is a fundraiser, we can not offer refunds. You may transfer your registration to another person for the current years ride. 

What if the ride gets cancelled due to weather?

Your safety is always our top priority. Our SAG team continuously monitors current and forecasted weather conditions throughout the event. If weather conditions are deemed unsafe, we will make every effort to delay the ride until conditions improve and it is safe to proceed.

If the ride must ultimately be cancelled due to unsafe weather conditions, there will be no refunds. DAM J.A.M. is a fundraiser benefiting Mayes County HOPE, and registration fees help support the organization's programs and services in our community.
