Rideau Lakes Cycle Tour 2009 - Radio Support Ops Needed
- June 6-7, 2009

2009-05-15

Looking for volunteer radio operators to assist in providing
radio support for this event. The RLCT has been run annually
for over 25 years by the Ottawa Bicycle Club. It involves
over 2000 cyclists, riding from Carleton University to
Queens University and back in one weekend, a one way distance
of 177 km! Amateur radio teams from Ottawa, and the Lanark
and Frontenac ARES groups have been providing support along
the entire route providing vital linkages between various
checkpoints, support vehicles, and to engage emergency
services to deal with accidents and incidents, of which
there are, unfortunately, several every year.

Operators will be deployed from Carleton University west to
Blacks Corners, south of Carleton Place. All operations are
done using 2 metres. Experience is not necessary.

Newcomers are welcome. Anyone interested, please contact
Gordon Mein, VE3FRB at: <ve3frb@xxxxxx>.

More information can be found on the Ottawa Valley Mobile
Radio Club site at: <http://www.ovmrc.on.ca>
