We still need a few more volunteers for the Lifeline 100 Bicycle Event rest stops, especially at the Dixon (BWI) and Crofton Park locations. The Lifeline 100 is this coming Sunday October 6, 2024, and the weather forecast looks good! 

Please volunteer by contacting the ABC Lifeline volunteer coordinator, Jim Black, by e-mail at JamesMBlack@gmail.com. This is a great way to give back to the cycling community, promote the club, and get to know your fellow members. 

Thank you!

On Sunday October 6, 2024 the Lifeline 100 Bicycle Event will celebrate its 10th Anniversary! The Lifeline 100 showcases Anne Arundel County’s scenic trails and roadways, teaches cycling awareness, safety and its benefits, and has grown every year to draw hundreds of cyclists and supporters from around the Mid-Atlantic.

The event raises funds to support local non-profits, including the Crisis Response System, Anne Arundel Food Bank, and BikeAAA. It is expected to draw 1,000 riders this year. ABC has been a major contributor to its success since the first Lifeline 100 in 2014.   

ABC members staff the four major rest stops for the Lifeline century and metric routes. This is the primary opportunity for us to give back to the cycling community, supporting BikeAAA’s advocacy on behalf of cyclists, and to help promote our Club.

We need a few more volunteers to staff these two rest stops:

o   Dixon Observation Area (at BWI) - Tina McDermott, Captain

o   Crofton Park - LJ Reiter, Captain
