Lewis Lake, Grant Village, Bridge Bay, Canyon, Norris, Madison, Tower, and Mamoth all have hiker/biker campsites that are held for cyclists and hikers. I have never encountered a problem getting a campsite. I suspect that if the hiker/biker sites were full - they would let you stay in the group campsite. But again - I have never had a problem in twenty years.

We were lucky in that we didn't have much rain, that can put a damper on things if it goes on for several days.
For me it would be a really big hassle to have to make reservations. We often didn't know where we were going to stay that night let alone days or weeks ahead. To plan everything out would at least partially spoil the tour for me.
It's good to hear I won't have any problems with camping reservations. I hate the thought of having to make reservations for so many places for so many nights. Miss one destination because of mechanical difficulties or problems with the old body and everything comes tumbling down and you end of camping anyway.
