So... pay $12 for the chance to win a $70 ticket? Not much value there. Sounds like a cool trip to ride - shame they couldn't have made a partnership with the Grand Canyon where so much of each ticket goes to the restoration or something better than this scheme. |

This sounds like you'd be paying $12 for a chance to help restore T&NO #982, with the possibility of getting a free trip on the GCRy. That's a good value !!! |

CZ just send in a donation and skip the risk of winning a ticket. Problem solved. Regards, John. |
