I really want to do this, I know they don't do it every year. ....and, this is the kind of thing that probably won't happen again after next year. The 2001 ride was 8 weeks long. The ride in 2004 is 25 days of riding, 5 weeks -- and IMO, if anybody thinks that they want to do a really special event this probably really will be the last time it happens, due to lots of logistical reasons. Some people missed getting to do the GAHR in 1976, some missed it that wanted to do it in 2001. If they miss it in 2004, I doubt that another opportunity will come along in our lifetimes. Of course, this is just my opinion, probably not worth much. Part of the reason it is even being attempted again is because of requests made by aging riders---not that new ones won't come along, but the ride management is not something that can be replaced. (again, IMO).
