I was looking around a little this morning, and I'm fairly sure we could snag a box trailer (like a Uhaul 4x4x8) for under $1000. Since most of the race planning seems to revolve around getting enough vehicles with enough space to hold both bikes and people, it might be a wise investment to make.
$1000 seems like a lot, and we would be dealing with lower gas mileage because of having to drag the thing around, but that would also be some SERIOUS sponsor space we could sell on an annual basis to pay the thing off and cover the additional cost. I'm sure that if I'm wrong, Guardrail will be in soon to rain on my parade.
I think it's worth looking into so the team could focus on more important things, not have to worry about choosing between bikes, and have enough room for gear.
