Hi Rich, David Steiner here. I am looking at volunteering for the Silver Rush 50 run (I'm racing the mtb portion Sunday). At the aid stations, how do we get up and back down after the end of the shift? I'm specifically looking at Black Cloud or Stumptown. Thanks
I know with stumptown you can drive right up to the aid station. its close enough to town that you could probably bike in and out of there too
