sounds like fun...especially at a paltry $5
yes, you can put your bike below. The best thing to do is to lock it to a support standing up so it doesnt bang around. also, if you dont have a top tube pad bring something to wrap around whatever tube is leaning on the support. They dont give a ***** what you bring. Ive seen them put live chickens under there.
also, yes.... 5 bucks for a t-shirt, spokecard, afterparty, and memories of the most fun race of the year is a good deal indeed.
