Hi,
Not sure if this is the best forum to post this, if not I'll move it over to classifieds. I'm looking for Wine Country Century tickets for myself and wife. We want to ride it on a tandem so I'm not exactly sure how many tickets we actually need. Anyhow, PM me. Thanks

I've heard that at times they will let you register the day of the ride...can anyone verify that piece of info...I'm thinking about crashing...
Btw anyone want to share a room...I can crash on the floor, just ask Dan and Bossman, they made me sleep like a dog in Davis:o

copied from their website:
For the safety and enjoyment of everyone involved we limit the entries to 2500 riders. As of Thursday evening Feb 5th we had 2500 riders and reservations are closed.
There is no waiting list. The event is full and we don't accept cancellations so we will not be adding any riders. However, riders who have a reservation but cannot attend may transfer their entry. Details here.
We think that Sonoma County is just about the best place in the world to ride a bike and we invite you to enjoy our roads and hospitality - but on May 2nd our roads are going to be busy and added congestion of additional cyclists impacts everyone's enjoyment.
Somehow that doesn't sound promising for day-of registrations.

Pete, take a look on Craigslist when the ride is near. There'll be a bunch for sale.

check!
I am holding a registration and I still hope to be able to ride, but it will depend on my knee. Right now I am having big knee problems and 100 miles is out of the question. I hope to get this addressed, but if I don't I will have to sell my registration.
ROJA, sorry to hear about your predicament. Hope your knee gets better. Let me know if you do decide to sell your registration. I'm in Berkeley and can swing by in a heartbeat.
Still looking for one more ticket. Anyone with extra tickets?
Thanks!
