Group tickets (information from summer 2024)
Benefit from the the offer as a team or as a duo. It is important to choose the right approach when registering.
The team or group ticket
One person in the group first logs in to the dashboard as normal and important: please enter the team name in the dashboard form under “I will ride in a team”. After submitting the completed form, you will receive an e-mail with an invitation link for other group members.
Using this link, each member will register separately in the dashboard, select their personal package and receive the € 9 discount.
Further advantage: the team name is then automatically stored in the form for the team members (this is practically, because the team name must always be written in same spelling).
With the CARD and CLASSIC variants, everyone can select the desired stone or trophy at the same time of registration and will receive their starter pack directly from us at the hotel. The NOW variant, which is to be ordered via the official Stoneman website, will be sent digitally to your mobile phone. Any trophy or just a stone can then be ordered online after the finish. Therefore you will receive a finisher mail from the head office with all the relevant information.
It is best to register for your Classic or Card starter package right after booking – please note the procedure for team tickets.
Good to know: as you have access to your starter form yourself after registration, you can also make changes later – such as for the date or selection of the starter package and your registration can also be cancelled again. But be careful with team tickets: Team extensions are only possible via the sent invitation link of the team leader (first registrant). Cancellation of a team member can be done by the team member himself via his individual access to the starter form. The GPX track will also be sent by e-mail 3 days before the tour. Prompt registration ensures that your starter pack is ready and waiting for you at the hotel on arrival.
The NOW starter pack is ordered online and paid for via PayPal or bank transfer (up to 4 days before the ride). A stone or trophy can only be ordered online after the finish and will then be sent to you by the head office.
