Catalina Highway is not technically closed to bicycle traffic, but please aware that should you choose to ride the mountain on October 23, you must obey all rules of the road just as vehicular traffic. Bicycles are not permitted in the lane closed for the marathon course. This means that if you cannot keep up with the pilot car traffic, you must pull off the road. Should you to stop to take a break, or to turn around, you must also wait for the pilot car to direct you, rather than riding against traffic and potentially causing an accident.
