In case you don't know about it, there's a lot of info here:
http://www.wavestowine.org, especially the FAQ page at
http://www.wavestowine.org/riders_faq.html
1. There will be busses to take you and your bike back from Lake Sonoma to AT&T park on Sunday.
2. See the Accomodations section and the Gear & Packing Suggestions section in the FAQ. You have two options: camping out at Sonoma Mtn. Village for free, or getting a hotel room at your own cost. You need to book the hotel room yourself (or your team can book a bunch of rooms together, that's what we did). See also
http://www.wavestowine.org/accommodations.html. If you book a room at one of the participating hotels then you can take a shuttle to & from Sonoma Mtn Village.
3. The minimum fundraising amt is $250.
jobob - thanks for answering Curtis.
and I understand about your own team. Maybe i should have joined you guys instead. Although I think I'd be the only guy on the roster...
Actually, raising the $250 was alot easier than I thought it would be. I made a lot of contacts for fundraising by adding the link to my donations page to my signature at the end of emails. Plus my old work matched donations. So I figured if I could raise at least $125 I could get my work to match it. turns out I raised $1800 last year. But I work for the government now so I'm not supposed to add that stuff to my emails and they don't match. Doh! and I started late so I don't think I'll make that much
again this year.
But if you have any other questions let jobob or myself know. Otherwise, come join us!
Gary
