I've lived in Miami then Ft Lauderdale since the early 80's. I haven't ridden in six months but start again this weekend. I am going to sign up to see if I can get in unless you can help? When you say your son is on a team, do you mean race team? I need a bus driver if anyone is available. Have you done this ride before?

The route was just published and is supposed to be one of the flatest ever....which is good for me because I am pretty new at this.
You can check it out on ragbrai.com
There is still a lottery - my son is on a team so we are pretty much assured of getting in.....
We lived in south Florida for years....what part of FL are you in? You are right about bike trails down there - although the West Orange Trail was pretty cold a lot of this winter....
