Great idea Melinda. I'd love to know who's going. 

I've set up a sheet if people want to add their info: 

Admins... let me know if you have a preferred way of hosting this.  I don't know the protocol (and I missed the March event) but it would be great to connect at the start.  Maybe Sunday afternoon when 90 hour riders are mustering and Monday riders are registering?

I'm assuming the event has tracking connected to rider number, but I assume that's just in/out of the controls.  I might be able to post my Wahoo tracking link to the sheet at the start, assuming I figure out my SIM card thing.

I tried the spreadsheet but it is set as read-only.  It seems it needs an "anybody can edit" setting

My bad... I did "anyone on the internet" but didn't change it from "can view".  Should work now:

I added my info and a link to my spot tracker for live updates.

In addition to the NER tracking list, there is a RUSA PBP tracking spreadsheet that Narayan Krishnamoorthy from SIR created for US riders and friends/family who are attending PBP. Enter your information if you like and use it for planning and coordinating!

In 2019 there was a SpottWalla live tracking link for the US riders ... Eric or others, have you come across one for 2023?

See y'all there!

Best,

Matt

Matt—

Susan Otcenas set up a Spotwalla page for Seattle and one for RUSA (it was included in the emails about renting Spots). Here’s the applicable part of her message:


If you already own a GPS tracking device AND you have a Spotwalla account, please feel free to add yourself to the PNW Spotwalla page. Those of us here at home love to dot watch!

The JOIN link for the PNW page I created is: https://new.spotwalla.com/lp/ddd7-13512c05-7dc6/join
The JOIN link for the RUSA page is: https://new.spotwalla.com/lp/0eb7-4e32d-8b01/join
The VIEW link for the RUSA page is: https://new.spotwalla.com/lp/0eb7-4e32d-8b01/view


Hope that helps.

—Patrick.

If anyone from NER is interested in coordinating before, after, or during the ride, I made a what's app group for us.  If you're not already in the group feel free to email me and I'll add you.  jvl...@gmail.com

Very cool, my departure time is 8:00pm on Sunday.  Does anybody know an easy way to do this with a Garmin?  Still learning my way around this Garmin supercomputer.  I think I can set it to send an email to ne-rand...@googlegroups.com with a tracking link.  Not sure if that works but I'll give it a shot.

Bon voyage American randos!!

Hey everyone, I have a question I was hoping someone might know the answer to.

As luck would have it, I DNF'ed after 60 hours at PBP at the Loueac control, and forgot to turn in my brevet card to the staff.  Does anyone know if this is a mandatory requirement to turn in the brevet card when abandoning the ride in order to have my participation listed?  I sent an email to ACP but I am not sure they will be able to respond to me in time before the results are posted.  Does anyone know?  Thanks in advance.

I don't know the answer but it's seems strange to me they wouldn't list you as participated without the brevet card. The finishers got theirs stamped and then handed back to them as a keep sake.

Best,

Jacob
