Would you ladies mind posting this to your local cycling clubs? The clock is ticking and we need three more crew members for RAAM!

***************************************************

Is crewing for RAAM one of your dreams? Here's your chance! We're looking for a few good men and women to support a two man Race Across AMerica team! The Beat Cancer team consists of two riders, Rick Schulze and George Vargas, and they need your help. We are looking for solid crew commitments for 2007 RAAM. June 10th we will need some, but not all of the crew in Oceanside for prep-work and the ride leaves Oceanside on June 12th...we will return by June 24th.

Are you liking the sound of this? Want more information?

Crew
While the riders may have the toughest athletic job on an event like this, crew have the toughest job overall. Once the ride gets rolling the safety of the rider, all logistics, nutrition, morale....everything is up to the crew. They not only have to endure sleep deprivation they also get to endure very cranky athletes the entire way.

I have no idea why people volunteer for this job but without them the ride just simply doesn't happen.


Crew members receive the following:

* A slow and scenic drive from Oceanside CA to Atlantic City NJ, all expenses paid (we'll give you food and a bed)
* A discount for product at Podium Cycles
* A substantial discount for a bike fit analysis from cycling legend John Howard
* There is a pretty fair bet that we'll have several tubes left over. We'll split these up between the crew along with any left over nutrition products.
* A once in a life time chance to expand your vocabulary as the cyclists start getting tired and cranky


If you, or anyone that you know is interested in being part of our team, please contact me at brandy_deluca@yahoo.com.

Thank you!

Did you post that on the Bike Journal forum yet? You should.
