Help, I need someone help.

I have two crew members lined up for the Race Across the West which starts on June 9th. The ideal number of crew members is 3.

I would need someone from about June 7th to June 12th or the 13th. You will see some incredible country as the Race Across the West starts in San Diego, Ca and ends in Durango, Co.

If Interested please send me a PM.

Could you provide a clear job description for a crew member?
The information is a bit vague imho.

The crew member would have to be available from June 7th to approximately the June 13th. The race starts on June 9th.

Crew and the rider have to show up two days prior to the start of the race. That day would be Jne 7th, which is for orientation, pictures and vehicle inspection.

Crew members would be resposible for driving the support vehicle, navigating the course (GPS aided) and providing the rider with nutrition. The course from San Diego to Durango is not as complicated as the course in the Eastern half of the country.

I will be buying a van prior to the race (my wife's car is dying). In the van, I will be building a single bed, so that Crew can catch some sleep. My goal is to ride for between 24 and 30 hours at a time, with 2-4 hours of sleep in between rides. Each sleep time will be at a hotel on the course.

The van will have coolers for food, water etc.
