for partners... consider posting on the Sadie myspace, or on chifg.com
both have worked for others in the past!

reminder, gents- if you show up without a female at registration (you might be able to find one at the registration though) you're paying the $40 "unaccompanied" registration fee!

If anyone along the highway between Atlanta and Chicago is planning to drive up, let me know. We're caravaning up (literally, we have to rent a van or two to fit everyone's bikes and bodies in) and would love to have company on the long road.

new this year...
in order to shorten the registration line and to come slightly closer to compliance with park rules, we're doing on-line advanced registration. it'll cost you about $.50 more (to cover fees n' such) but will give you the fantastic advantage of getting the list of checkpoints in advance.

register online, get the checkpoint list!

you should note though that this fantastic advantage doesn't include designation of what's a pick or a drop or what pick/drop pairing will be. BUT this will give you the ability to envision the ideal way to find and get around the course.

ALSO we are printing a limited run of Sadie schwag this year (not a t-shirt!) and you'll be able to secure yours by ordering online. They're first-come, first-served and we're only selling about 100, which is fewer than there are racers, so if you want 'em, get 'em early.

Online registration begins one month before the event, Oct. 10. watch for the info on the myspace.

(guys, you'll have to use your spidey sense to determine whether you'll have a lady to ride with or not. if in doubt, register as accompanied ($10) and work your ass off to get a date. if you show up without one, plan on paying the "unaccompanied" difference day-of.)

SPONSORS:
Pabst Blue Ribbon
Chicago Wig
Bendependent
Chester Cycles
Cognition Caps
Early 2 Bed
Harlot Wear
Seagull Bags
Twin 6
Under the Weather
Zugster Bags

I need a date!

I can't afford $40 for race reg. I've already blown my load on airfare and bike shipping.

Come on, I'm cuddly..
