Before submitting a LoToJa application, it is important to note the following:
1) BE PREPARED - Please read the information published in our Registration Guide and Cyclist Bible.
2) ADD US TO YOUR ADDRESS BOOK - To ensure that important registration information and monthly Latest News emails are successfully delivered to your inbox, please add the following to your address book:
3) STATUS NOTIFICATIONS - Applications that qualify for a guaranteed 2026 LoToJa entry will be approved and receive either a Registration Acceptance or Registration Confirmation email between May 1 and May 8. Please refer to page three in our Registration Guide to learn more about our selection process. All other applicants will receive their registration notification/acceptance email on Friday, May 15.
4) REGISTRATION PAYMENT - All successful applicants will receive a Registration Acceptance email with special credentials to securely log in and submit payment. To keep our registration timeline on schedule, payment should be submitted upon receipt of this email. Payment must be received within two weeks to secure your spot. Unpaid entries after this period may be released to riders on the wait list so we can continue confirming the field. Prompt payment officially confirms your participation in the 2026 event and allows us to move forward with category placement, logistics, and safety planning. Thank you for helping us keep the process efficient and the LoToJa experience strong for all participants.
5) LATE APPLICATIONS AND WAIT LIST - Applications received after May 1 will be considered on a first-come, first-served basis to either take an available spot or be added to our Wait List. Wait List applications will be pulled in and processed starting July 16 through August 1.
