_____________________________________________________________
4/11/2010 Update: You can only add to this event from a Waiting List status. Two of the three buses are full. Bus #3 has 10 more spots. If you want to ride on Bus #3, RSVP and pay, and I'll move you manually from the Waiting List to Bus #3. I will reserve another bus if 28 more people add themselves to the Waiting List (for other than Bus #3). There is a lot of interest in this trip, so there is a good chance that another bus will be reserved. You will be re-imbursed if you pay and the additional bus is not ordered. The additional bus will follow the same route as Bus #2 below. See more details on the trip below.
____________________________________________________________________
4/10/2011 Update: The buses only have a few seats left. Here are the number of seats left on each bus:
Bus #1 (Hwy 80 corridor: Roseville, Watt/80/Davis,): 5 seats left
Bus #2 (Hwy 50 Corridor: Hwy 50/Hazel, Hwy 50/Power Inn, Davis): 6 seats left
Bus #3 (Hwy 99 Corridor: Stockton/Elk Grove): 9 seats left
When these buses fill any remaining people will be put on a "Waiting List". Once the Waiting List reaches 28 People, I will order another bus that will follow the same route as Bus #2.
_______________________________________________________________________
4/03/2011 Update: We have added a pick up location in Stockton and Sheldon Road, Elk Grove. Please be familiar with the Bus departure times below. Please send a message if you want to change your bus pickup location to Stockton or Sheldon Road.
** Please note: Race registration is still open, but will be closed shortly. There is still plenty of room on the buses. You don't need to be registered for the race to ride the bus. I'll send out an email in a couple weeks providing more detail on our trip.

Hi Nancy and other Rat Packers,
Shanon has a very good question.If there are any members who live closer to the Stockton area (Lodi, Manteca etc) and Nancy is willing, I'd help her host a bus from the Stockton area.

I live in Stockton. My husband and I will be taking the bus. I would love to have a bus pick us up in Stockton. Please keep me posted.

Tony Vice from Fleet shoes in Stockton was interested in using his place last year as a pick-up place for the bus. I am sure he will do it this year if you ask him.

Should we do a 4am? Don't really like waking up earlier than needed, but hey if you're doing the driving I will do it!

HI Lhia, The race starts at 7am, and the race organizers advised me to be in SF. by 6 am. Some locations will have pickups at 3:30am and others 4am. The buses will start farthest east on Hwy 80 and Hwy 50. If you catch the bus in Davis then you won't have to get there until 5:00 am! I will update the departure times for the different locations soon....Nancy

Donna & Jeanette, we would have to get a minimum of 35 people from the Stockton area to schedule a bus from that area. Bay to Breakers is the same day as Avenue of the Vines Half Marathon, and some of the Stockton running stores promote the Ave. of the Vines Race, and aren't as willing to support Bay to Breakers..

I hope everyone is registered for B2B. Saw on Facebook today it is officially sold out!
Looking forward to my first B2B.
Won't let me be counted in if I'm paying by check. Getting on at Roseville Sunsplash.

Nancy- what time do you think we will be back. Just learned my daughter's piano recital is that same day @ 2pm. I will be meeting at the hatchery for pick up! bright and early and ready to go back to sleep 8-)

The race has closed, but there is plenty of room left on the buses. You don't need to be registered for the race to ride the bus.

Nancy - any possible chance of an earlier bus heading back. We are suddenly running into obstacles, daughter's piano recital in afternoon and trying to figure out options. Thought I would at least ask.

OOppps... I signed up to meet the bus @ Watt and I 80--thinking it was right near me (I am @ Watt and I 50!)
Anyway, me and my friend need to get on @ the Power Inn stop! thanks!Posted March 21, 2011 at 8:28 AM -
Nancy Lancaster
Lhia: Don't think separating the buses will work. There will be walkers on both buses and they need a longer time to finish. What time do you need to be back to Sacramento? Brooke: thanks for the update.

My computer pulled a good one and covered l/2 of the message for pickup. If we are able to get a pickup in Stockton, do you have a possible site yet? Thank you for organizing this for us. Marlene Kinser

Hi Carol,
Please RSVP and pay for two seats. Note that you want to pick up in Stockton. At the worst you would need to drive to the Hwy 50 and Power Inn location, but its looking better for a Stockton pickup..Posted March 23, 2011 at 9:26 PM -
Sofia Mosqueda
I would like to be picked up in Stockton if we can get a bus.

Hey Everyone...I just added a pickup location in Stockton and Sheldon Road in Elk Grove. Please contact me if you want to change your bus pickup location...

Hey Nancy--Can you confirm that the Racca group is scheduled for pick up at the sheldon and 99 location in elk grove? Thanks. LR

Thank you so much. My husband and I will be catching the bus at the Super WalMart in Stockton. This makes it so much easier. Thanks again Nancy. Great Job.

Nancy - need to sign up my friends too. Should I just edit my response and if I do so will it allow me to just pay for the addtl 2 people or will it charge me for 4?
Posted April 9, 2011 at 10:25 PM -
Nancy Lancaster
Hi Lhia,
Try to edit your payment and add two more people. Let me know if you have problems. Add them soon because the buses are almost full.Posted April 10, 2011 at 5:52 PM -
Amy Ryan
Hi Nancy,
I've been trying to pay online using Amazon payments, but I continue to get error messages. Is there another payment option? I really don't want to miss out and have the bus fill up. Thanks.
