    Mark, according to the requirements link, it says the start / finish is open at 5:30am and the course closes a 3:30pm. The requirements link on the left side of the OCW home has a lot of good info. Check it out.

    How long does the Bear course stay open? When does the sweep begin?

    Hi Greg
    Good question for the sizing. Our jersey supplier is Voler. I have posted the Men's sizing chart on the Amtrak jersey page. Use that as a reference. And you can always visit the website see www.voler.com for more information.

    All luggage is transported to San Diego. Anything you may want to eat during the ride you should carry with you.

    Michael Lee on Amtrak Comments 2012

    Thanks for all the info so far. I had a couple questions. The registration info mentions having jersey size selected before starting to register. Makes good sense...but where is the sizing info to help us do that?

    Also, just to be clear, the cooler and small bag riders are allowed will waiting at the finish in SD, correct? They won't be transported to the rest stops (i.e., if I want my own food at rest stops, it should be something I can carry with me, correct?)

    Thanks agai
