2019DIRTYKANZA EVENT REGISTRATION TRANSFER POLICY AND PROCEDURE
Due to high demand, we are unable to accommodate everyone who wishes to participate in the DirtyKanza gravel road bicycling challenge. Therefore, a lottery selection process was implemented to determine who will be allowed to participate in the 2019Dirty Kanza. That lottery selection process occurred on January 19, 2019. The event field is now full, and registration is officially closed. If you were not lucky enough to get in, all hope is not lost. We fully understand that "life happens", and when that many folks sign up for an event that many months in advance, a certain few will have situations arise that prevent them from attending. So... we have designed a process through which Dirty Kanza event entries can be transferred. Please read the following carefully...
Refund, Transfer, and Deferral Policy
All registration fees are non-refundable.
Event registrations may be transferred, if done so before the deadline of May 1, 2019.
Requests for transfer received after the May 1st deadline will be denied.
A deferral provides an athlete guaranteed, non-complimentary entry into the following year’s race. If an athlete wishes, they can defer their entry, good for 1 year. Athletes have until 11:59 PM CST on Saturday, May 25th, 2019 to email athlete services to defer. At that time, the athlete confirms that they wish to defer and understand that in order to get into the following year’s race they agree to pay the following year’s entry fee. Please send an email to dkinfo@lt.life to complete the deferral process.
2019DirtyKanza Event Entry Transfer Procedure
It is the responsibility of the person currently registered for DirtyKanza to find someone to acquire their event entry. The good folks at ridinggravel.com will once again be hosting a discussion forum, which will serve as the place to find someone to take your spot, or to find an event entry that is being offered for transfer.
Event entries must remain in the original event distance. In other words, a 100-mile entry cannot be transferred to a 200-mile category. Entries may be transferred to a different category/gender within the same event distance.
The individual currently registered for DirtyKanza must submit an email to dkinfo@lt.life requesting the transfer. The new participant assuming the transfer MUST be cc’d on this email.
DirtyKanzawill then “Reply All” with further instructions to keep the transfer process moving forward.
Once the transfer has been completed, both parties will receive a confirmation email from DirtyKanza.
DirtyKanza will not manage a wait list, nor will we act as “match maker” to help anyone find an entry.
Do not simply “give” your DK entry to someone, then have them show up for Rider Sign-In. All riders will be required to show a government-issued photo I.D. in order to obtain their event packet. If they aren’t on our roster, they won’t be allowed to ride. No exceptions.
Note: Deadline for all entry transfers and all registration changes is May 1st, 2019 at 11:59pm CST.
Questions about this procedure can be submitted to: dkinfo@lt.life

Will pay full price, transfer, SAG and any other associated fees for 2019 DK200 entry. Paypal, certified check, ACH or wire transfer, your preference. Located in California, US. email me at Entered lottery but not chosen
I was able to secure a transfer. I'd encourage anyone else who gets in to let other people know so they can see some movement on the list. It seems pretty hopeless. Maybe it is, and I just got lucky. Good luck to everyone still trying to go.
PLEASE! I’m praying for a DK 200 registration. I’m 61, live less than 1 hour away from Emporia, and this will be my 2nd DK 200. I’m riding to help raise donations for refugees in Lebanon please go to ride4refugees.com to see last year’s results. Also I have my hopes set on the 1,000 mile goblet while my body is still able. Your help will be greatly and sincerely appreciated. Please email me at behemoth@hopecc.net
