This is actually for Scott Stanger. He covered my set up shift and then did RV Parking.
Thank you!
Riders are very kind and thankful to the volunteers.
We were at hydration station 2 and many riders were looking for salt sticks, pickle juice etc as they were cramping by the time they made it to us. While the gatorade was nice other hydration necessities would be helpful. Also it would be lovely to have an outhouse. We were nowhere near a restroom so had to use bushes. 5 hours without a restroom break is just too long.
I have volunteered at other bike race events before (quite often actually). For super long events like that it would be nice to have more support than just water at the hydration station. Several people were cramping when they got to us. Pickle juice is great to help that. Also any snacks or other drinks would be super helpful to riders. I was at the half way point station. Also many of the food vendors were gone for people that raced up until 630-700 pm. That seemed odd as they didn’t have time to redeem their meal/drink tickets after their ride. Why would vendors leave before the race was done? It was a fun experience and I would do it again. Thanks.
