BIKE MS CITRUS TOUR 2021 IS CANCELLED

On Tuesday January 26, 2021, it was announced by the National MS Society that the “in person” portion of Bike MS Citrus Tour 2021 scheduled for Saturday March 6, 2021, is cancelled.  In the statement announcing the cancellation, the reason stated for the cancellation was due to concerns with the COVID-19 virus, guarantee of medical support within hospitals in the local area, and other logistical issues.  Previously the Bike MS Citrus Tour 2021 had been reduced significantly from a two day to a one day event and cancellation of other related festivities.  At press time, the date for the Bike MS Citrus Tour 2022 was not available.

The ARRL West Central Florida Section and the National MS Society extends its sincere thanks to all who had volunteered to provide communications support the Bike MS Citrus Tour 2021.  The ARRL West Central Florida Section has sponsored the amateur radio communications support for Bike MS Citrus Tour since 2018.
