You're indeed allowed a certain timeframe to modify.

Anyone have thoughts on bike check times?

How much of the other junk should I be signing up for?

Have gone for a 1600 bike check time. Riding over from Evreux in the morning and that will give us time to check in at Huttopia (2 beds available btw) before going across to the carnage. My BCM homologation number to follow idc "need to provide the missing brevet certification numbers on or before 03 July 2019 or your registration will be cancelled."
You're indeed allowed a certain timeframe to modify.
I think maybe that modification will be possible until a short time after you've submitted any missing homologation number(s). Registration acknowledgement e-mail said "your registration will only be validated upon receipt of payment and approval numbers for all your patents. Until this validation, which can take place after several days, you can modify your registration file."

I just tried to register but couldn't as so far only two of my rides have been validated by ACP. The system requires three rides before it'll late you pay (so once the results from the Bryan Chapman are online I'll be ok).

What on earth am I doing here on this beautiful day?! This is the only life I've got!!

I think I understand everything on the registration except the Sleeping Package.  Do I assume that's just for those starting on Monday morning, so if we start on Sunday evening it's not for us?

That's how I read it.

That's me updated and paid my pre-registration to an entry, on the strength of my 200, 300 and 400.

No pressure on the 600, than...

presumably there is no rush to do this, other than choosing bike check times, as start time is already set from pre registration.

You need to select following language for results,vehical y/n, gilet size, bikecheck, agree you are phyical fit then click modify reservation. It then gives an option to pay.
You may have timed out, log back in again and fill in any missing info and submit.

How do you pick a Jersey size? I've measured my chest at 100cm which makes me 2xl, but would put me as 190cm tall when I'm only 170...

What has been included historically for:
"MEALS from Sunday 18 August (Served from 11:30 am to 7:30 pm)"?

I've got an 1830 start time so tempting to go for that, but if i'm going to spend the time dodging cheese...
Was half thinking could get a decent feed on the way from the hotel around midday, giving time to digest and then get into a more normal on the bike feeding approach from then on.

I plucked 1300hrs bike check out of thin air.

I picked the same, but applied some thinking... At what time am I likely to have had a good long sleep before and be awake enough to head to the sheep fold for it.

Makes little sense to get up early and rush to bike check IMHO - lazy morning and wander over.  There'll be more folks around to start enjoying the atmosphere.  Leisurely lunch and all that.

No point in getting any less sleep than you can, especially if your digs are 20km away or whatever.  Stay in bed as long as you can.

Hopefully the process is all straight-forwards.  Just awaiting the 3rd BRM number and I can do mine - but I am certainly not going to stress over it.
Right! What's next?

Ooooh. That sounds like a daft idea.  I am in!

Booked in for 16:00 bike check.  I won’t be leaving Calais until after breakfast so have to drive, check into hotel and then ride to Rambouillet.

Last time round I believe it was a little chaotic early on but the process was very smooth by the time I got there.

Waiting for my 400 to progress from ‘provisional’ then I’m good to register. 600 done yesterday too, so relieved!

same, will just have to see what slots are left for bike check when the time comes, preferably something early or late leaving the rest of the day free for sightseeing

Anyone else found themselves on the mailing list for "Ouest-France" after registering? Surely not a coincidence.
