Volunteer Request: 100km Coordinator

[Luke Heller]

Why: 100km is a great distance that everybody loves

Frequency: 1x/month

Duration: 1 year

Responsibilities: Pick a date, pick a route, respond to emails, collect ride fees, have fun, submit results.

I'm searching for an individual who wishes to be the point person in managing monthly 100km events for 1 year. If that's you, get in touch with me!

You don't need to create new routes but you are welcome to if that's your goal (I will be happy to assist with this).

Deadline: Ideally, within the next 72 hours. But if not then, ANYTIME.

If someone steps up to volunteer, we can add these events to our annual ACP event submissions. In addition to that, Charlie has volunteered to create an events flyer for the club with all 2027 events. I would be fantastic if we can plan ahead ASAP and get these events on the calendar!

Get in touch!

Great idea!

Given that I’m (always working to be) gone over the summer months, I don’t see myself as the “12 month” person; however, I’d be happy to join with one or two others to make this happen.

Great suggestion. This could be 1 person or 12.

I am interested in helping out with admin duties for this idea. I am still planning to make a flyer for 2027 and think it would be cool to have monthly 100k and list it on the flyer (along with the other longer brevets) with a QR code that would link you to the website where folks could find out how to sign up. I would be down to handle collecting and storing the waivers and adding people to the registered riders on the website for the monthly 100k rides as well as the other brevets. Similar to Coleman I think taking on full responsibility for all 12 months feels daunting for me (shoutout to luke for everything he has done/still does it's a lot of work and I don't even know half the things he has to do), but I would be happy to lead 3 of the rides in addition to the admin duties. I do think the 100k rides would draw out experienced randos into participating that maybe have not been as consistent with riding as well as new folks that may need help registering/have lots of questions about randonneuring.

You could count me in on organizing some (2-3) 100K gravel|gravel heavy| 50-50 gravel road rides for next year, if that’s still being considered. I know Luke had put out a call earlier this summer about that and I’ve dropped the ball with too many other things taking precedence. 

Speaking of gravel: I’ll be doing some Bent Creek to Pink Beds + Pisgah routes over the next couple of weekends in preparation for a gravel race in mid-October. 50-75M, 60-70%+ would be gravel. If anyone wants to join DM me.

I’m also interested in helping make this happen. I’m currently hiking the Camino Norte and won’t be back until November 1st. If other interested parties could develop a calendar that works with the other brevets, I’ll sign up for the ones for which I’m available, likely 4-6.

The doctor’s on walk-about; Coleman’s on don’t-walk-about (damn blood clot!). So, I’ll take a stab at creating a draft 2027, 100K calendar.
