> If you were waiting until we REALLY needed you to volunteer for the
biggest bicycle tour in the history of the Washington area, YOUR TIME HAS
COME!
>
> We are in critical need for 30 Bridge Marshals who will help the 6,000
cyclists on the tour stay safe as they cross the four bridges on this year's
32-mile route - Roosevelt, Key, Benning Road, and Frederick Douglass
Bridges. We will be sharing the bridges with opposing traffic, separated by
barrels and cones. Bridge marshals will add an audible warning to cyclists
to bear right as they travel the bridges and to be aware of the change in
grades on the approach and exit ramps. Bridge marshals will be equipped with
vests and radios to provide on the ground communications with Tour
Headquarters.

> Recruit a friend, recruit the office - Help us make BikeDC the SAFEST tour
around!

> Tomorrow, Thursday, Sept. 6, beginning at 5:30pm, at Martin Luther King
Library, 9th and G Streets, NW, we'll have volunteer orientation (Gallery
Place Metro Stop). If you've already volunteered or if you are thinking
about volunteering, plan on joining us tomorrow evening.
