Mountain Bike Racing - Entering the 2005 TransAlp Challenge

Bikeforums.net is a forum about nothing but bikes. Our community can help you find information about hard-to-find and localized information like bicycle tours, specialties like where in your area to have your recumbent bike serviced, or what are the best bicycle tires and seats for the activities you use your bike for.
Can anyone shed some light on the entry process for the TransAlp challenge? I've read several accounts that say there are thousands of people attempting to register every year, but the organizers set the limit to about 500 teams. Does anyone know how the organizers "choose" who is accepted into the race?
Is it first come first served? Is it a lottery?
Thanks in advance - TB

There is a member here who lives in Germany, "Nathank" and I think he did it, or was going to do it. Send him a Private Message (PM) and ask him.
Thanks - I got a reply from him last night. I have what I need
Hi,
noticed you'd got some feed back on entering the Transalp Challenge. I was looking for some information myself for next years and wondering if you could help out.
Cheers
Simon
