American River 50... parking (Read 169 times)

xor


    Ok.  AR50 is a point-to-point.  You can either park at the finish in Auburn and take a really early shuttle to the start... or park at the start in Sacrapimento and take a late shuttle after.

     

    Does anyone know the parking situation at either end?  I'm trying to figure out which parking area is lower stress.

     

    For the record: I already understand the idea that parking at the finish means less waiting/walking after I finish the race. I'm an early riser and would prefer parking at the end.  UNLESS that parking is a disaster on race morning (like when you get to Way Too Cool late, or any Rock N Roll race).  So my question isn't theoretical about "what's better", but practical... which is easier to find? Lower stress? Less crowded?

     

    Maybe it doesn't matter.  But I know AR50 is a big race, so maybe it does.
