Boston By Bike…At Night This Weekend
Written by Boston Biker on Aug 05From the email:
This year’s ride will be 8/17 – 8/18, 2019.
It’s very helpful whe we have a few more HAM radio operators to run
commuications with communication. If you are a HAM or know one who is
interested in the ride, please let me know. We’re always happy to have
more helpers. We also have spare radios this year, so if you’re
licensed, but don’t have a radio, please don’t let that stop you from
volunteering.
I have some help coordinating radio operators this year, so if you’re
interested, please reply to [email protected].
Please note that there is (intentionally) no Midnight Ride email list.
I’ll try to be helpful about letting people know what I know, but make
no promises.
