so after a long hot summer, we are finally going to get some rain. the cyclone off the north-west coast will dump a significant amount on us too. please be aware to ride to conditions and don’t make unexpected moves as braking times will be reduced and sideways slips will be increased. even though there is a bit of rain expected, the forecast is for temperatures in the mid-20’s, so you don’t need to dig the winter warmers out just yet.
ride leaders – support the club and help us become ambassadors for the sport in the public eye. put your name down as ride leader to ensure that the group ride is safe and organised. sign up here.
ride leaders sponsorship – this months ride leaders are proudly sponsored by Retul Bike Fit Lab. please see the previous post detailing what they provide and we thank them for encouraging our members to step up as ride leaders. ride leaders will receive a $10 Dome voucher to be used after the saturday ride. if you have a business that you want to promote to our members, check out the previous post to both promote your business and help out the club.
spr agm & breakfast – saturday march 21st will be our next club breakfast and will incorporate the club agm. all positions are wiped each year, so if you would like to help the club, please see the previous post for more details.
club auditor – the club requires a annual audit leading up to the agm. the 2104 financials have been viewed by mike tan and we appreciate the work he has done over the last 2 years. we need to appoint a new auditor for 2015 so if you have any experience in this area and would like to help out the club, get in contact with us.
rules of engagement – please read the previous post if you come out on any of our rides. it is up to all members to enforce these rules.
accident report form – as a member, if you are unfortunate enough to have an accident on your bike, please use the form attached on the previous post. this covers both insurance claims and allows the club to better manage it’s risk. what we want to use this form for is to understand if we need to change anything that we do on our rides. if you and someone else touch wheels and come down on one of our rides, i would like you both to fill in a form and send it through. it doesn’t have to be just for serious accidents, tracking the minor ones can help us understand our risks.
ride routes – bit of a change to the ride routes this week. as this serves as our weekly newsletter, we will now show all the rides available throughout the entire week (sat-fri). if i have missed any, or if the links don’t work properly, let me know via email.
