To all,
The next event is the Coastal Classic, Saturday September 7.
The coastal Classic runs from Otford to Bundeena via the coastal track
along the cliff tops of the RNP.
The communications plan is to put
members at Garie Beach, Wattamolla Beach, Marley Beach and the finish,
Bundeena RSL.
We should also try and support Andrew on the Wollombi Wild Ride, also on the same day.
Anyone available to assist please email at sydney(a)crest.org.au.
