There is an exciting ride coming to the Lehigh Valley on June 4 – The Gran Fondo Hincapie – Lehigh Valley.  This is a cycling celebration set on the beautiful roads of the Lehigh Valley with the proceeds  benefiting the Youth Programs at the Velodrome.  There are several course options ranging from 15-80 miles.  The organizers are  looking for volunteers to help out.  Perhaps some of you will be interested.  Here are the things that they need help with

1. Manning the first rest stop in Lenhartsville

2. Driving SAG support and offering minor medical and mechanical support to riders (cars will be provided)

3. Cycling road marshals to provide directions and minor medical and mechanical support to riders (volunteers for this are anticipated to ride anywhere between 30-100 miles along the route)

All volunteers will be compensated with an event T-Shirt and a food and beverage pass back at the velo.  In addition, the road marshals will receive a Hincapie kit to wear out on the road.

Here  is a link to the event with some additional info. https://hincapie.com/granfondo/lehigh-valley/
