Hello Rob-
We are looking for the Ride Marshals to be the eyes and ears out on the course. Assist with flats if mechanical folks are not available, report accidents to the central dispatch, help riders that might be having challenges during the course...give encouragement, a wheel to ride behind, etc...
It's more than just "Riding the Course." We did this for the past 2 LIVESTRONG Challenge Events and last year's Harvest Century as well.
Hopefully this helps. Thanks Rob!
