The Unbound lottery opens in less than a week, and the website isn’t very helpful. I raced it back in 2019, but have a few registration questions for those who have done it recently. My brother and a couple of his friends are entering the lottery and asked if I wanted to join. I had no real desire to do it again, but I enjoy racing with my brother since we don’t live near each other. **I’d only want to race if he gets in too.** **First, is there really no group registration option?** I understand the logistics could be challenging, but for a race that already requires so much planning, it would be nice to have some way for people who want to race together to register together. **Second, is there really no way to transfer an entry?** My biggest concern is that I get in and my brother doesn’t. Then I’m stuck with an expensive entry to a race I don’t want to do alone. For an event that costs this much and requires months of training and planning, not allowing transfers seems completely self-serving and anything but customer-centric. It feels like protecting the organizer’s revenue takes priority over the participants. **Have others dealt with this?** Am I missing something in the registration rules? Is there a smarter approach than both entering and hoping for the best? **And finally, how is the lottery opening in less than a week and they still haven’t posted the registration cost?** ---

Leadville used to offer this and stopped several years ago, so I assume LT probably eliminated it from all their events. Not positive though. > [@KonaSS](#): > > Second, is there really no way to transfer an entry? Nope, not in the recent past anyway. ---

You could always switch classes if you got in and your brother doesn’t. 25 ebike miles might even be kinda fun instead of the 200 miler right? And you get the fun of “doing unbound”, the training, the travel, the expo, the finish party, and the medal. In fact….25 miles on the ebike seems like the most logical option. ---

Are you able to change classes once you are in? If I were to get in and my brother doesn’t, doing the 100 instead of the 200 is alot less disruption to my life. ---

> [@KonaSS](#): > > Are you able to change classes once you are in? I know you can always go down in mileage (even race week), but I don’t think you get a refund for the difference.
