All stations are to announce arrival of the first riders as they pass through. |
All stations advise Net Control of the numbers of the final riders and arrival of the sweep. |
We have described the station locations as best we can. Station locations may change from year to year. The equipment recommendations are based on previous experience. Volunteers should be prepared for changing conditions. |
NOTE: TICK BLOOM – We have been informed of a ‘tick bloom’ on Mt. Tam, in late April, 2016. If your assignment takes anywhere where you might be at risk, TAKE PRECAUTIONS! Ticks in this area carry Lyme Disease. |
