Just wondering if any other CO BT'ers got in before the close. Can't believe how fast it sold out this year. I'm hoping to maybe link up w/ a few of you down the road when training kicks in for this event.

My neighbor got in but I did not. He is a recreational rider so I might end up getting his ticket from him if he doesn't train. I've promised to get his butt out in the hills to train this spring and eaerly summer. We will see.

Hubby got in, but if he manages to get into the Markleville Death Ride, then his slot will be available since they are on the same day and he'd rather do the Death Ride.

Closed already?  I intended to check out the details as I've never done this before and then decide if I wanted to...guess it's too late already. 

Hopefully next year I'll be on the ball!

Well, you can always try Craigslist...along w/ the 100 other people already looking for a ticket

Yeah, last year it closed in like 11 days. This year: 40 hours.

last year I had success waiting until the last few days before the ride to pick up a transfer on craigslist.  at that point there was far more supply than demand and I got the ride for less than cost.

we could try to coordinate a BT-version of the Triple.....

craigslist the week of the race will damn near be giving them away. I got the jersey and an entry for half of face value.

Cal - 2009-01-09 8:40 AM craigslist the week of the race will damn near be giving them away. I got the jersey and an entry for half of face value.

That's good to know and what I'll be looking for. I looked at about 8:00 on the morning of 1/3 and was amazed it was closed.

I wasn't really planning on Triple this year...or at least I didn't have my heart set on it.  I'm still drying out from 2006!  I would definitely be up for a BT-Triple.

I kind of like the BT-Triple idea (maybe a little better than the grand tour at least for this year)

My husband got in...but, it's because we set our alarm for midnight and I registered for the 5430 sprint and Boulder Peak and he registered for the Triple Bypass right when it opened! Good thing too b/c he had no idea it would sell out that fast! Wow!

Closed already?  I intended to do this one but I guess not! I heard they don't allow time trial/tri-bikes cause of the danger of the aero bars... do you know if this is true? Good luck and have fun!

My hubby has a triple bypass registration available. He ended up getting into The Death Ride (which is the same day) so he won't be doing the bypass.  If anyone is interested in it, let me know.

I've done TBP probably a 1/2 dozen times over the years with aerobars.  I don't think I would want to ride all those passes with a TT bike but a friend of mine has.  If there is a ban on TT bike and/or aerobars that's news to me. If you get a slot I would check with Team Evergreen.
