SUNDAY, OCTOBER 11, 2009

We know you might want to stay in bed after Day One, but be sure to get up in time for a catered breakfast back at the Westfield Plaza Camino Real before starting Day Two.  Give yourself enough time to get on the shuttle, checkout your bike from the bike locker, check your luggage back onto the luggage truck and eat a good breakfast.  Again, we ask that riders not leave prior to the official start time.  If you do so, the rest stops may not be prepared and there will be no route support.

The Sunday finish line celebration includes lunch in an outdoor festival-like setting at Hospitality Point in Mission Bay, San Diego. Invite your friends and family to join you! You may purchase additional meal tickets at rider check-in events or at the Bike MS Tour Information Booths in Carlsbad and Mission Bay. $10 for Adults and $5 for Children.
