 Baggage Service
Group Health STP provides trucks to carry your gear down the route. Limit baggage to a light (20 lbs.) and small, distinctively colored gym bag; sleeping bag and tent. Do not pack breakables or valuables. Do NOT tie pieces together or use plastic garbage bags. Since your gear may be out in the rain when it is unloaded, it is helpful to put your clothing inside a plastic bag before packing.
Before You Leave Home
- Detach the official Group health STP baggage tag from your number bib, fill out the blanks and securely attach to your baggage.
- Pin on your bib number.
- Attach your adhesive helmet number to the front of your helmet.
- Affix the cardboard bike number to the front of your bike.
- Note: The photographers on the route need your rider number on the front in order to match you with your pictures.
Start Line
You are responsible for placing your gear into the truck or pile labeled for your destination.
Starting Day Two - Sunday
Place your gear aboard the truck at any of the designated pickup sites by the time listed. (See schedule below for times and locations.) If you do not finish the ride, your baggage will be sent to lost and found at the Cascade Bicycle Club in Seattle.
