[K3CAL] CFC BIKE RIDE Saturfay, October 222, 2016

[Kh6cuj at aol.com]

To  All, 
This  is the second request to provide communications support to the Cystic 
Fibrosis  Cycle (CFC) for Life Bike Ride on Saturday, October 22, 2016 at 
Harrington  Harbor South. Herrington Harbor South is located at: 668 
Friendship Road, North  Beach, Maryland 20714. 
The  ride as described by the CFC Committee describes the “ride through the 
most  scenic terrain along Maryland’s treasured Chesapeake Bay. CF Cycle 
for Life  features well-stocked rest stops every 10-12 miles, bike mechanics 
along the  route support vehicles, great food and entertainment.” 
There  will be three routes: a 15, 30, and a 65 mile route. This is not a 
race but a  ride. 
This is the CF Cycle for Life web  site:

try 
We plan to have operators at the start/finish, rests stops, support  
vehicles, key intersections, and on support vehicles. Ideally, I would like to  
have 13 operators as a minimum. We especially need Net Control Operators to  
provide the transceiver and antenna setup to operate at Herrington Harbor.   
I have the following volunteers:  
Dave Hardy (KB3RN) 
Jerry Hazel (N3HKJ) 
Jim Tetlow (K3UGA) 
Bennet Palmer (KC3COD) 
We need a few more operators. If we don’t get any more  volunteers we will 
have to opt out of the commitment to the CFC  organization. 
This event is being coordinated by the Calvert Amateur  Radio Association 
(CARA). Last year and hopefully this year we augmented the  CARA with the 
Anne Arundel Radio Club (AARC) and the Maryland Mobileers Amateur  Radio Club 
(MMARC) operators. This is truly a joint operation and a perfect  opportunity 
to meet Amateur Radio Operators from other clubs in the  area. 
If you are interested in operating at either of these events,  please send 
an Email to: _kh6cuj at aol.com_ (mailto:kh6cuj at aol.com) . 
Aloha, 
Les  Silva
