F.S. Seagull Century 2004 (2 Registrations)
Due to an injury I am unable to attend the 2004 Seagull Century. I
have two registrations available that include the Saturday all you can eat dinner. To register now it is $75 apiece for the ride and 12.95 each for the dinner. I will sell both for $95 vs. $176 that it would currently cost. If you are interested please E-Mail me at . |

Terry, you are so cheap ;-) You apparently never rode the Chris King Gourmet series; always a bit out of my budget. In 2001 I think they were $75, then $125 in 2002. Have not looked since, but I suspect their recent move to the Portland area will mean the rides will move north, too (they were holding them in Santa Barbara County and Napa/Sonoma area). I have seen most of the local rides climb into the $30-40 range, but have seen a couple up to $50. At that price I will do self-supported rides. Off to head south for the Lighthouse Century ($40/person with dinner). - rick |

Terry, you are so cheap ;-) Well, I must confess to paying $65 for the Climb to Kaiser. But that was 155 miles, and the support was great: cold sodas at every stop, and popsicles at the last stop. I didn't eat the dinner, though. I was too barfy. You apparently never rode the Chris King Gourmet series; always a bit out of my budget. In 2001 I think they were $75, then $125 in 2002. I'm with you there. That looks like an eating event with bicycles. Off to head south for the Lighthouse Century ($40/person with dinner). Enjoy the SLO area! I'm taking the weekend off to taper before next week's Everest Challenge ($80, but it's 2 days) -- terry morse Palo Alto, CA http://bike.terrymorse.com/ |

Kathmandu? No such luck. The Everest Challenge merely involves a long drive to beautiful Bishop, CA. The reason for the name is that the ride climbs 29,035 feet in two days: http://everestchallenge.com/ec05.htm -- terry morse Palo Alto, CA http://bike.terrymorse.com/ |

From the event website: Registration Fee (includes Friday Night Fever Party, rest stop refreshments, Saturday Lawn Party entertainment, Century T-shirt and more...) $55.00 thru 8/31 $75.00 after 8/31 FWIW this ride attracts about 6,000 riders, vendors, equipment displays, all that stuff. There's a Sunday ride too. The price does seem a little high, but I suspect it's because the college has some "rip charges." HTH --Karen M. |

STP is about $75, but it's a double century or two-day back-to-back centuries. By the time you've bought overnight accomodations and your bus ticket back, it gets to be a pricey weekend. -- Warm Regards, Claire Petersky please substitute yahoo for mousepotato to reply Home of the meditative cyclist: http://home.earthlink.net/~cpetersky/Welcome.htm Personal page: http://www.geocities.com/cpetersky/ See the books I've set free at: http://bookcrossing.com/referral/Cpetersky |

We did the Seagull in 1990 when it had only 600 riders - it was its 2nd
year. Great food at the rest stops, music, long sleeved t-shirt...for $16 I believe!The Seagull has become rather pricey....but we'll still be there as will the other 6000 entrants. Guess thats why they charge $55! "Claire Petersky" wrote in message ink.net...
