OPPORTUNITY OF A LIFETIME!
You better believe it! It is incredible how many jobs make up a successful Metro Grand Spring Tour. We have more jobs to fill than you can shake a spoke at. Did you know that this event requires a minimum of (35) volunteers to operate and that’s without breaks. The plan for the Downriver Cycling Club MGST 2017, on Sunday, May 7, is to get EVERYONE involved on the day of event, resulting in lighter loads for all of us, and an outstanding day of riding for the participants.
If you haven’t already chosen the work slot you desire, consider where you’d like to help, and sign up ASAP. Volunteers are needed in these areas: Route Planning, Registration, Vittles, SAG & Amateur Radio.
To stake your claim to a spot in one of these appealing categories, sign-up online on our secure volunteer registration page https://downrivercycling.redpodium.com/mgst-volunteer-sign-up or e-mail mgst_chair@downrivercycling.org
Your club and our 2017 MGST riders appreciate your help J
Remember, all volunteer workers receive a complimentary pancake breakfast and a free MGST shirt. SAG drivers are compensated for the gas they use.

- Route Planning and Evaluation involves route evaluation and accurately marking routes to eliminate any confusion for our riders prior to the event.
- Registration Representatives wear several hats. They handle paperwork, fasten ID bracelets, take money, distribute shirts, and print maps. Pick your poison.
- Vittles Volunteers take care of hundreds of thirsty, hungry, hot (or cold), wet (or dry) cyclists, restoring them to warm and dry, fueled and quenched.
- SAG Specialists patrol the routes for riders in need, carrying bottles of water, pumps, tools and a first aid kit. Ideally, these Good Samaritans drive vehicles that can accommodate a rider and bike if needed.
- Amateur Radio Techs will be spread throughout the routes to report conditions and connect riders in need with our support team through the Motor City Radio Club.
