Registratiön is öfficially ÖPEN for Ragnarök '09
Some details:
When: April 18th, 2009. (edit... was April 11th, but that is Easter weekend)
Where: Starts and ends at Colville Park in Red Wing, MN.
What: The Ragnarok 105 is a mainly unsupported "race" that traverses the countryside east, west, and south of Red Wing in Goodhue and Wabasha counties. The length of the course is approximately 105 miles, and it will be almost a totally different course this year. There will be ONE location where you will be allowed to receive outside assistance from a support crew if you want. At least one other town to refuel (no outside crew support there though).
Quick rules:
1A. YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR YOURSELF!
1. Must wear a helmet while on the course.
2. Must have front and rear lights (nothing fancy, just something blinking).
3. Must follow the rules of the road. If there is a stop sign, stop (officially I'm saying this...), if the speed limit is 55 mph, please don't exceed the speed limit.
4. You will get 1/2 of the course on tulip notes at the start. The other 1/2 will be given to you at the Zumbro Falls checkpoint.
5. There will be time cutoffs. More details later.
I'll be more detailed with the official rules as we go along (not too long into the future, just lazy tonight).
But, for now... here is what you really will want to know.
A) We are capping the field at 50 riders.
B) First come, first in... no lottery.
C) IF you are crazy enough to want to be in for the race, all you have to do is mail a postcard or card of some sort though the Postal Service to:
Isaac Giesen
134 Kingswood Drive #210
Red Wing, MN 55066
With the following information:
Your name
Your gender
Class (open or singlespeed)
Age
When I receive the postcard I will fire off a confirmation email.
I think that's it. Any questions? Post em up here or email me at i.giesen@charter.net .
Thanks for reading!

Some Details on the Race Day for those who are wondering
On race day (April 18th!) registration will open at 6:30 am in Colville Park in Red Wing, MN. The main parking lot area will be where we convene. The official starting line will be the Dog Poop sign again. I think that there was a port-a-potty style bathroom at the start last year, but not certain
The start of the race will be 7:30 am sharp.
The First Checkpoint will be at roughly the halfway mark. The same park in Zumbro Falls will be the meeting area. There will be outside support allowed at this point, and this point only! This is a change from last year. The second checkpoint will not allow outside support. If you are not checked in at the Zumbro Falls checkpoint by 2:30 pm you will not get the second half course tulip notes.
There will be another checkpoint along the way with about 25 miles to go. This one is for our own sanity so we know where people are on the course. NO outside help or support will be allowed here.
The race will finish at the same place that the race started. Colvill Park. You must be at the finish line (dog poop sign again) by 7:30 to complete the race officially.
Here are the towns you will go through and what you can expect to see in the way of amenities:
Red Wing (start and finish) - hotels, gas stations, etc. No gas stations or convenience stores are on the route until the last mile or so. Also has a hospital, Peebles store and (2) Subways for some reason.
Zumbro Falls (Checkpoint 1) - two convenience stores and a couple of bars that may provide a decent burger
Millville - no stores or bathrooms or parks are on the course or even in Millville
Lake City - a convenience store will be on the route, there are also fast food opportunities a few blocks off the course and we'll be rolling right past a medical center.
There will be at least 55 or so miles without easy refueling so be prepared with enough water and food. The weather last year was about freezing and WINDY. Brutal. The week before it was about 70 and sunny. Could be warmer, could be rainy... could be snowing... BE PREPARED! You are responsible for you.
More reports from out on the course tomorrow probably.

PIMPING UP YOUR RIDE WITH PATRIOTISM, EH!
A passerby stops to look at an "art car" called I Am Eh in downtown Vancouver on Wednesday. The car has a patriotic theme and is additionally adorned with items such as a golden cherub with skis and ski hat in support of the Canada team in the upcoming Winter Olympics.
