Does anyone know if there are going to be any private baggage haulers on this year's trip?

Kyle,


Go back to pages two & three of this message board.  Both Bubba and Cycling Logistics have left postings.  Signing up with these guys could make your life easier, if this is one of your first tours.


Stop by and visit Team Pok-A-Dot while in camp and say hey.

Actually, To call Bubba a 3rd party baggage hauler is like calling the Tour de France a bicycle ride.  Sure, if you sign up to be a "pampered pedaler" Bubba will haul your bags for you.  Just like you'll get to ride you bike if you're in the TdF.  Bubba will also:  provide a nice Sierra Designs tent (with ground cloth and rain fly) along with a nice fat inflatable air mattress.  He tears down and packs the tent each day and moves it (along with your bags) to a specially-selected spot at the next campground (the "Pamper Zone").  Since Bubba gets there early, he gets a great spot - not under an all-night lamp or next to a porta potty.  And if it might rain the Zone will be situated on the highest ground available.  Bubba also provides the use of a camp chair with leg rest, clean towel and washcloth daily, and munchies and liquid refreshments.  I'll be a Pampered Pedaler for the third year in a row this year!  I was sold 2 years ago when we enjoyed torrential rain most of the week and my tent and stuff were dry (thanks Bubba!) when everyone else's were sitting in 3 inches of rain and mud at the end of each day's ride.
