BMHA’s Eleventh Annual Hamvention Ride
Tipp City Park
Tipp City, Ohio
Saturday, May 17, 2003
Ride Begins 3:30 PM
Come and meet your fellow BMHA members and check out their bicycle-mounted
transceivers. Set up a special-event station. You can bring your bike and come
on the ride, or relax in the park and perhaps have a QSO with those of us on the
ride. Also, in response to requests from BMHAers who may have logistical
problems getting their bikes to the Dayton area
RENTAL BIKES WILL BE AVAILABLE !!
Our friends at Tipp Cyclery (whom you may remember as the donor of the "I
Traveled the Farthest to the BMHA Ride" T-shirt) have informed us that a
limited number of rental bikes will be available. Check out their web site at
www.tippcyclery.com, or send me an email and I'll put you in touch with
them.
General Information
Once again the ride will start from the Municipal Park in Tipp City, Ohio. Tipp
City is on Interstate 75, about 10 miles northeast of the Hamvention site at
Hara Arena.
The ride will leave at 3:30 PM EDT. If you'd like to come up early for a
snack or some socializing, we'll be there by about 2:00 PM. We’ll be in the
North parking lot (same as last year). Don't worry about finding us, it's not as
if you could hide a bunch of biker-hams in a park that size. The ride itself is
normally an easy 27 miles with stops thrown in occasionally to keep everyone
together, and slow enough for some meaningful conversation (or DXing).
Send me an email at otown@infinet.com if
you have any ideas, or just to let me know your coming. (It’s always nice to
know how many people to plan for.) But there’s no registration or anything
formal like that. Just show up!
See you there,
Jim Gumbert, NC8Y
