CNC 1999 had about 600 riders....that was IDEAL....the ride was two weeks and for me by far the most "memorable" of the four CNC's that I have done.....In my opinion "more" is not better....just an individual preference however....
Registration is beginning to pick up. We are ahead of every previous year, except last year, which was a record for us. We may not end up with more than last year, but we should have more than 1,000. I think all of the bad weather is convincing people to hold on to their regstration until the last minute.
I for one one, would love to ride, especially b/c I missed last year due to my wedding, but I have to miss this year too, due to two weddings, one at the start and one at the end of the trip-- and both in New York! Definitely next year!! Have fun out there (and stay warm!)
You need to get your priorities right. You mean you're gonna miss a swell bike ride to go to TWO weddings? Must the the influence of your new wife...Not her families by chance, are they?
