Each rider is responsible for their own transportation to San Francisco prior to the start of the Million Dollar Challenge. Please plan to be in San Francisco for rider check in and orientation at the Hyatt at Fisherman's Wharf by 5:00pm on Friday, October 14, 2011. This orientation will include a group reception with light food. You will have time for dinner on your own following the presentation.

Each rider will also be responsible for making their own transportation arrangements for themselves and their bike from La Jolla Shores (our ride-in location) to their residence or accommodations in San Diego on Friday, October 21, 2011.

Riders who reside outside of San Diego will need to make travel arrangements, including bike transport back to your home from San Diego after the completion of the Million Dollar Challenge. We do encourage you to take advantage of the hotel deals listed below and join us for a full weekend of CAF celebrations.
