Save the Date! Spin for Kids 2020

Spin for Kids is a single day charity cycle ride that will be held on Sunday, October 4th, 2020.

Spin For Kids is Camp Twin Lakes' annual fundraising bike ride that helps provide life-changing camp experiences for children with serious illnesses, disabilities, or other life challenges. Each October at Camp Twin Lakes Rutledge, our riders’ fundraising efforts culminate in a fun and fulfilling ride that winds through the scenic backroads of beautiful Morgan County, Georgia.

I've connected with Ashley Henderson, the volunteer coordinator for this event. Each year she puts out a call for motorcycle marshals. This event has been running for 10 years! Here is a link to the 2019 event page.

This event is supported by Morgan County ARES, who operate Net Control and the support vans.

Ashley will send out sign-up information ahead of the event and I'll share it as soon as I receive it.

Team Moto 2023 Retrospective

This year we made an impact in our community by supporting four events and helped to raise more than $1,000,000 for good causes. Publix Atlanta Marathon Organized by the Atlanta Track Club with support from local ARES volunteers. Scott, Sam, Sam's granddaughter and I provided motorcycle and amateur radio support to this event. Next year, I may volunteer as a HAM capable cyclist, or use an electric motorcycle. The course layout does not work well for motorcycle support at a running event, and I accidentally got funneled in with runners over the finish line towards the end of the day 😱 AJC Peachtree Road Race I volunteered as a Radio Operator at a water station for this event, while Scott became a mobile camera platform. I had a lot of fun with the water stop crew and pitched in to help distribute water to the runners. There was quite the party atmosphere going on at the water stops.
