This year’s event will take place on Saturday Sept 12th and, while more information around routes and such will be forth coming, I wanted to get out the call for volunteers now. Like last year we need three cars/drivers to follow riders and provide support. Can you help this year? Its a great way to help support a great event. Please let me know. ---

Robert, I am bikepacking from Sept 7th to September 11th arriving home that evening. I would be willing to drive support for one of the groups again this year as long as all I need to do is show up that morning. I won’t be available to do anything in advance. ---

Nothing for you to do in advance. You know the drill and I will give you the food and water in the morning before the ride starts. Thanks for helping again. ---
