"deluxe" is prepayment of shake down. I'll be staying at the luxurious Econo lodge.

I need to order fresh tires, yet

I just looked at the entry fee and looks like the Delux and the Basic package has been switched around...now the Delux is $260.00.

I paid for the Delux last week when the price was $220.00. Anyone know how this is going to work out?

Hi Toro. :) From a few posts above:

I have under 80 miles range on my bike, is this enough for sandblast?

Probably not, looking at last year's stage schedule:

section 2 is 84 miles. Is your 80 mile range when you are riding easy or hammering the throttle? Less than 1/2 of that 84 miles is special stage, the rest is transit where you might just try to ride real easy and conserve fuel.

You can carry more fuel as long as it is NOT mounted on your body (i.e. in a backpack). Some guys strap a 1L MSR camp fuel bottle to the bike someplace. Might be enough for you to make it back to service.

If you have a sixty mile range you'll be fine. There is a service/fuel stop about every 55 miles.
