Registration Is Open!

Posted by Chris Skogen On January - 9 - 2012

2012 is here and we are excited to announce that registration for the Almanzo 100 and the Royal 162 has opened. Be sure and get your name on the list by following a few simple instructions. First, get a postcard (we're rather partial to the one over there). Second, fill it out with the correct info (found by clicking the title above). Third (and fourth), get a stamp on the card and drop it in the mail by January 31st. Fifth, wait patiently while we compile all of the data as it comes to us and then check back here to see if your name is on the list (spelled correctly we hope). That's pretty much all there is to it. Oh yeah, we'll announce race day specifics once we figure out how many riders we will have and so on. Keep it real.

A second sample post to see how everything will look and to see how far the body of text will move over toward the photo. I think it's working rather well, I'm just not certain as to the final layout.

There is no registration process, charge associated with, or postcard needed. Just show up On January 29th and ride. We will be beginning at 9:00am in the Glynner's/Fiesta Mexicana parking lot (and ending there as well). It is a large lot and we will be supporting the local establishments but please try to carpool or park someplace away from their front doors.

We will provide hand-written route notes. This is not a race, although we anticipate multiple groups forming, and as such we will make a guess as to how many copies to bring. The 70-75 mile route has a refreshingly small number of turns or other notations needed and will fit neatly on two normal "tulip diagram" type sized pages. Dover's Road Trip Bar and Grill is a fine establishment which has a full menu and bar and is just 2 blocks off the route roughly 1/3 of the way through. Chatfield is also on our route, located just past half-way. If you are cold, hungry, uncertain etc., take care to replenish as needed while in Chatfield. The route directly passes a Subway, Kwik Trip and a couple of small town bars. We will be riding up Magnum Rd soon thereafter which I'm sure some of you may remember from past Almanzo 100s. 80% of the way through their is a brief out and back option to check out some interesting heritage and the Old Dubuque Stagecoach Route. The final 12 miles or so are pavement and bike path. We intend to sit down and share some good food and drink at the Glynner's Pub finish.
