[FARC] TdF Bike Ride Maps

[Sean McAdam]

I have links to the routes for the 30, 60, and 100 mile rides for this
years TdF.  Included in the map are the rest stops, and a turn by turn
guide (cue sheet).

All rides will start and end at the AOPA Community center building on
Bucheimer rd.  (this is a new starting location from last year)

The rides will start early in the morning, and I will get firm times for
the starts. The 100 miler runs into the mid-afternoon.

Each of the 9 SAG vehicles ideally will have a HAM on board for
communications back to net control.  If we have the volunteers we can have
a HAM at some or all of the rest stops.

If you know any HAMs in the area that might be interested in volunteering
please ask them if they can.  All they need is a 2M HT, or portable,
optional items: 12V adapter for your HT, a MAG mount antenna (I have some
spares I can lend).  We had a couple HAMs use their own vehicles last year
too. You do not have to carry riders or bikes, just call in any issues you
come across, and potentially get dispatched to trouble spots to get eyes on
the situation, or search for lost riders.

Last year we had great success, providing some vital communications for
event. I am really looking forward to working with everyone again this year.
