WAGBRAD FAQ

I can't make it to the start, how can I spot you on the route?

I am going to try to regularly tweet our position. Also you can email me and I will give you my cell phone number.

Where can I get water or food?

There are a few parks we'll pass through where you can get free water and several times we'll pass other places to buy such things.

Known Water Points:

Along the CCT at mile 13.4.
Jessup Blair Park at mile 22

Definitely the first 10 miles. In general, it gets harder as you go.

I'm not going to have to help you make your Washcycle sign for your bike, am I?

You would only be "helping me" if I were going to do some of the work...
