Do you have to wait until May 1 to see the lottery results?

Don’t sweat the lottery. Assume you’re in. In the rare case of not being selected, there will be multiple ways of purchasing a registration, including postings on this site…..even at a discount if you wait long enough.

Ok. Thx. I’m not gonna sweat it. This is my first RAGBRAI so still just scoping out the process. I’ll be driving up from south of Houston. I’ve sent my charter a down payment and making lots of vac plans etc. Hope gas prices drop between now and last week of July.

Thanks Mitch. Sounds like I don’t need to sweat it as there are other options if you’re not picked thru the lottery.

Aye, yii, yii, yiiii,
I am the RAGBRAI Bandito.
I ride without paying,
I’m proud that I do.
I laugh ’cause I know
That I’m cheaper than you.
Aye, yii, yii, yiiii,
Oh, I am the RAGBRAI Bandito.
I don’t have a wristband,
But I have no fear.
I have all my money
To spend drinking beer.

Someone from the forum posted this a year or so back. It’s a great description of the ride!
“RAGBRAI is a county fair married to the Mardi Gras, whose parents were a rock concert and a pot luck supper, all out on a week long biking holiday!” (Author unknown)
