Festival Report #4

Registrations are pouring in for the Festival!  More folks this year are doing both events.

Most of those riders are coming in from out-of-town!  So far, 58 or our volunteers and 52 other club members have signed up to ride.  That's out of 1070 members!  This is THE premier bicycle touring event in Gainesville this year.  If you ride a bike, you ought to be participating!

Many thanks to all of the volunteers who have signed up.  We now have all of our volunteer positions for the Aid Stops covered, and all positions on Saturday covered.

There are a few open positions before and after the event, and several on Sunday.

Our biggest need right now is to add a few more SAG drivers for the Horse Farm Hundred.  We pay $30 gas money, and you mainly drive around making sure no one gets stranded with a mechanical or from one too many hills.  We need one of these persons to ride with Dave Lancaster, the Bike SAG guy, to help him navigate our roads.

Our registration staffs are also short at Loften and at Flemington.  While we can get the job done, life will be a lot easier with a full staff -- folks don't like to wait in lines!
