Volunteer for the Discover Hartford Bicycling and Walking Tour

Volunteers are a very important part of the success of this event. We need your help to make it a success. 

Volunteers are needed: at the Registration tables, as Route Marshals, Route sign posting and tear-down, and general clean-up.   
Registration Tables: check off pre-registered participants, day of registrations, T-shirt distribution, etc.
Route Marshals:  Ride along the route until you get to an assigned location to stop and help with traffic, rider directions, or rest stops.  Continue the ride when the route sweepers come by.  Also carry tubes, patch kits and air pump for flats.  (Please specify 10 or 25 mile route.)
 
Route Signs:  This can be done by bicycle or car.
-  posting involves starting not later than 7:00 AM to put up route turn signs pre-ride.
-  tear-down involves removing the route signs anytime post-ride (after the route sweepers go by).
(Please specify pre-ride or post-ride, or both.)
 
General clean-up:  helping after returning from the ride, or stay in the park during the ride if you are not riding.  (Please specify during the ride or after the ride.)

If you fill out a volunteer form we'll try to make the best use of your abilities and available time.  As a volunteer run and member driven organization, we appreciate your help.  You keep the wheels spinning!

If you can't commit to volunteering, here are three easy ways to help out to make this tour a success.

  1. Register to ride.  Don't forget to bring your family.

  2. Tell 5 of your friends about this great event.

  3. Join or make a donation to Bike Walk CT.  Bike Walk CT brings you this event and also is doing a heck of a job with bicycle and pedestrian advocacy at the regional and state level.
