[nrv-hams] VT bike race is on!

[Pete Burkey]

Patrick,

Thanks for the update. Since I have not been lucky enough to receive
a course map (Somewhat frustrated) please ask Hunter to have sufficient
copies to hand out Saturday morning.
Also, I am disappointed that only (4) of NRVARC members are available.
I thought perhaps some of the new members might enjoy participating.

73,
Pete (W3WEQ)
