Thank you for your understanding with the recent passing of my brother. I am determined to make the second annual marathon fundraising event for the Childrens’ Cancer Research Fund a success!
ALRIGHT…GREAT ANNOUNCEMENT!!! We will be rescheduling the Come Fly The TransAmerican Bicycle Trail Marathon Fundraiser Event for Saturday, August 20th starting at 8AM EDT (1200z)…updating the briefing now…stay tuned. I will be emailing all those that registered with the new date and hopefully you can still make it.
It’s official! We will have the Eric Flight TransAmerican Bicycle Route Marathon starting on Saturday, August 20th, 2022. All the information you need to participate is in the briefing available here: Fly the TransAmerica Bicycle Trail Marathon Briefing - Fly the TransAmerica Bicycle Trail Marathon Briefing - Google Docs
Also, you need to register in order to be “official” and qualified to win raffle prizes. Register here (make sure you read the briefing first): https://forms.gle/amw2Q6QgYfZV9mBW8 3
Just Flight and Drzewiecki Design will be donating prizes that will be raffled to those that participate in the marathon (see briefing for more info).
We have about 5 flying it like a marathon plus myself (same as last year) but there should be a lot more flying some legs here and there and not flying it like a marathon (made this a Virtual USA Flying Club event) as well as those that will join along on the flight during the streaming.
20 minutes until registration for flying it like a marathon is done
Last year we had a lot of viewers and leg flying participants here and there and raised over $1000 total so I’m hoping for at least $500 this year. It’s been harder between the last 3 years to get donations so everything helps.
