Fellow Radio Amateurs,
We got the official word from MS Society that the 2020 Bike MS: Glimcher Keystone Country Ride has been cancelled as a face to face event. The Ride would have occurred over the weekend of July 18 – 19, 2020. The MS Society is working on a virtual event to replace this year’s Ride. The planning team had expected that this year’s Ride would be cancelled but we wanted to wait for official word from the MS Society before reaching out to you all.
The MS Society appreciates the help that we radio amateurs provide the Ride. They realize how difficult it would be, if not impossible, to put on an event of this size and complexity, have it run smoothly, and more importantly as safely as it has been over the years without Amateur Radio volunteer resources. This year would have been the Ride’s 25th year.
Thank you for your help providing safety, health, and welfare communications support for the Bike MS: Glimcher Keystone Country Ride over the years. We hope to see all of you, plus a Ham friend, next year. Once we know the dates for the 2021 Ride, we’ll send it out with a save the date e-mail message.
