[W2CRA] 2017 Skylands Tour de Cure

[Chagan]

Please see below my email from Mark Levine, KB2VSH:

Chris,
                                Thank you for your follow-up.  YES!!  I still need hams.  I will try to get into the net tonight at 2000, but can pretty much guarantee I can't make it from my home on only 5w.  Could you also take a look at the routes and let me know if the Cherryville is a good option for coverage?
 
Here are the details:
·         The event is being held at Waterloo Village on June 4, 2017.
·         We have several different course lengths – 10 through 75 miles.  The courses are as follows:
o   10 miles: https://ridewithgps.com/routes/19447512

o   30 miles: https://ridewithgps.com/routes/19447877

o   50 miles: https://ridewithgps.com/routes/19447879

o   75 miles: https://ridewithgps.com/routes/19447872

o   The longest ride goes out first, with a start time of 7:00am.  Hams should report to the Control Center (tent on Waterloo Village grounds) by 0645 for a briefing, paperwork, and assignments.
o   I need radio operators to ride in SAG vehicles to help direct the driver (or the ham can drive) to the location(s) where riders need assistance.
o   Hams can drive their own vehicle if they desire, so long as there is a rack or a place to transport 2-3 bicycles.  (I have an extra couple of bike racks if their car has a 2” hitch)
o   Gas money and boxed lunches will be provided.  
o   A full breakfast provided before hams go out on the road, as well as plenty of food on site when they return.
o   If a ham is only able to work a partial shift, I will make arrangements with them to accommodate their schedule.
o   The last rider is expected back (and the shift will end) around 1400.
