INTERNATIONAL TOUR INFORMATION AVAILABLE IN THE BAC OFFICE
The BAC office has several file cabinets that contain information provided by tour directors over the past 20 years. This
summary contains three lines of information about each international ride (excluding Canada) since 1983:
-
line 1, in bold, indicates the ride’s date, title, geography, degree of difficulty, ride director, and duration;
line 2 summarizes the itinerary for the ride; and
line 3 describes the type of information that is available to would-be ride directors in the BAC office files.
This listing is designed so that you can use the Word2000 Edit/Find command, or equivalent, to search for a country of interest.
