IMC first timers - Carbo load and banquet

Thought I would mention this for anyone who is going to Penticton this year and wanting to attend either (both?) of the events in the subject line. If you didn’t order your tickets as part of your registration, you’ll likely find it difficult to get them now. They are always sold out. I didn’t order enough one year, and had to scramble to get a couple extra tix to the banquet. If this sounds like you, I’d suggest getting to race registration early, and camp out at the table where the tickets are doled out. There will always be people coming through that because of circumstance have more tickets than they will need - buy what you’ll need from them. The later into the day you go to register, the more people you’ll find in front of you with the same situation…

Athlete’s meals are included in the race entry fee . You just need to show your prestigious silver numbered bracelet. Partners and family members are extra.

Last year I had a friend pay for an extra ticket for herself at the race sign up, and then couldn’t figure out why she had an extra ticket. She easily found someone to sell it to.

Any other solution than waiting in line at registration to get a ticket for carbo load diner? My wife will be here with me on Friday, which wasn’t originally planned, so she’d like to attend the diner as well…anybody who wants to sell a ticket can PM me…thanks!
