Sudbury Rocks! Walk/Run for Diabetes

2012-04-26T06:24:00.001-07:00

Our Friends at the Sudbury Rocks! Walk/Run for Diabetes have asked if some cyclists are able to help out with being lead and sweep cyclists.

If you are able to lend a hand please contact Neil Phipps at neil_phipps@hotmail.com

Hi Trevor,

I'm helping out a bit with the Rocks Run on May 13th. I've been tasked with tracking down some cyclists to lead and sweep the various distances. Would the cycling Club have any riders who would be interested in helping out with that? It would be a great chance to fly the club colours in a fairly high profile event(for this area anyway). We are also looking for cyclists to patrol sections of the course and radio back regarding any issues at water stations or runners dropping out etc. If you know anyone who can help please have them e-mail at this address and I'll get them more information.

Thanks,

Neil

SCC End of Year Race - Saturday Sept 3rd, 2011

2011-08-29T19:01:00.000-07:00

SCC End of Year Race
Saturday Sept 3rd, 2011

The club will run a short time trial [two categories] followed by a criterium race [for “B” and “C” group riders] at Delki Dozzi track starting at 9:00 a.m. [1st rider out] followed by a club social at Guy’s place.

This is for SCC club members only. Non-members can join the club that day with a $30 fee. This may seem a bit steep but we have to follow insurance regulations. There will be no race fees and no prizes ... just bragging rights later at Guy’s

Pre-registeration only via email [no exceptions] - frankbattaion@yahoo.ca, The deadline is Wednesday Aug 31. This is important so Frank can group the riders before hand - as you will be timing each other in pairs.

Time Trial

Riders will be paired [slower with faster] and will time each other ... so we can run 4-5 riders at once. This is the same format we did last year for the 5 km TT at Frank and Keith’s Special. The teams and "heats" will be arranged ahead of time. All TT's will start from the fly at the top of the hill with timing commencing at the line. Stop watches, timing sheets and clip-boards will be provided for each team. We will run a time trial bike category and also an Eddie Merckx [road bike only with no bars] category.

Criterium

A 30 minute +5K event for Group “B” and “C” riders. Some “A” riders will also be in the race to help launch attacks, bridge, provide “on the fly” strategy and to mix it.

Social

626 Sunnyside Rd (Long Lake to Sunnyside and about 750 meters down on the right hand side) The club will provide food and drinks, but please feel free to bring a small side dish or appetizer.

2010 5 km TT [from the fly] Champions

Eddie Merckx Cat Rob Rice 6:55

Time Trial Bike Derek D 6:37

“Possible” bonus feature includes SCC’s own Tom Hums attempting once again to break the track’s flying “killermeter”. He posted a blistering 1:13.9 in 2010. The record is 1:11.8 set in 1997.

The Inside Ride

2011-08-29T19:00:00.000-07:00

The Inside Ride

The Inside Ride is a coast to coast Canadian foundation that raises money in support of children living with and beyond cancer. The Inside Ride is an extraordinary two-hour indoor cycling challenge that is fun, safe and team-based, that promotes volunteerism and encourages physical activity. The support provided by organizations like yours is vital to improving the world for kids living with, and beyond cancer.

“As a former competitive cyclist, I had the privilege (and a ton of fun!) participating in one of the Inside Ride cycling events, a terrific fundraiser for childhood cancer. The energy and enthusiasm of the organizers (Coast to Coast Against Cancer Foundation) and participants is inspiring, and means a brighter future for kids and their families impacted by cancer. Count on me to continue to support your amazing efforts and dedication to such an important cause.” Curt Harnett, Three Time Olympic Medalist

Your fundraising efforts will provide support where the needs are greatest, including funding of kids cancer camps, family support programs and research which contribute to inspiring hope and improving the prognosis for children and their families impacted by cancer.

The proceeds of the Inside Ride Sudbury Event will flow through to Camp Quality Northern Ontario. Camp Quality Northern Ontario is a week-long camping program that provides a wonderfully unique opportunity for children with cancer to put their illness behind them and concentrate on having fun! Each camper is matched with a trained adult volunteer and participates in a wide variety of fun activities with their adult volunteer. Additionally, Camp Quality conducts a year-round support program that includes a reunion weekend, and educational puppet program and ongoing personal contact with campers and their families. Our camp and our year-round programs are volunteer-run, community-funded and are available at absolutely no cost to the campers.

Camp Quality’s Mission: “No one can do anything about the quantity of life, but we all can do something about the quality.” This is the mission that Camp Quality delivers to the campers; a quality time with quality people who present a quality program.

The Inside Ride Sudbury in support of Camp Quality Northern Ontario will be held at Tom Davies Square Foyer, 200 Brady Street, Sudbury, on Sunday September 18, 2011 at 11:00am. The event will be two-hours of fun, uplifting music, with a bit of stationary cycling thrown in. There will be prizes and medals for fundraising, team spirit, team costume and team mileage. Each team must have a minimum of 6 participants and will rotate every 10min’s throughout the two-hour duration. Each team is required to donate a minimum of $1,000, which can be generated through fundraising, self-donations, or any combination that can be thought of. While there is a minimum donation there is no limit on what you can fundraise; all donations are tax deductible and receipts will be provided.

The triathlon club is holding 4 TT's this summer. There will be 10km and 20km distances. The events are free and there will be e-load provided before and after.

The dates are:

Wednesday May 25th

Wednesday June 29th

Wednesday July 27th

Wednesday August 24th

Anyone from the SSC is welcome to come and participate as long as the insurance is paid. If you could pass it along to your members and maybe make mention to it at practice that would be great.

If they have any questions they can contact me at any of the contact info below. They are going to be on the old highway 69 at 5:30pm for the 10km and 6:00pm for the 20km.

Thanks

Hi folks:

a point to note, the trail around Lake Ramsey going through the conservation area is closed until mid-summer. I had the surprise a couple of weeks ago, when I had to walk my bike over the ice...

New Clothing

2011-03-21T19:51:00.000-07:00

After much discussion it is time that we order new clothing for the club. We are keeping the same design, but we are changing manufacturers. After careful investigation we have chosen to use Hincape Sportswear. These products are slightly more expensive that the Biemme clothes, however they are the identical items that are used in the Pro Tour by the BMC team.

***On Tuesday March 15th we will be taking pre orders for the clothing at the DD practice. There will be a "Fit Kit" available so you will be able to try the clothes on, and see the quality of the clothes prior to purchase. ***This will be the only date available to try the clothes on, so please make an effort to be available if you intend to purchase some of the new items. Please be prepared to make a minimum of 50% deposit on all orders.

As the manufacturer has changed, we are blowing out our existing stock of Biemme clothing on a first come first served basis.

Attached below is a price list of the new and old clothing, and the sizes we do have available.

Reminder of DD Practices Cancelled

2011 Memberships Now Due

2011-03-21T19:48:00.000-07:00

Good morning everyone.

I hope your training is going well and you are getting ready for the 2011 cycling season.

It is once again time to start our 2011 membership drive. In doing so, I have attached our new membership form and OCA Waiver Form (2010)for your convenience. Remember, your total fees are due by December 31^st of every year. For riders wishing to purchase a racing license from OCA for the 2011 season, you will need to pay full SCC fees up front. Once you receive your license and give me your registration number we will refund you the insurance cost that you pre-paid. If more convenient, you can also mail your forms directly to my address:

36 Richelieu Crt.

Sudbury ON

See you at training for the next four weeks.

Racing with the SCC in 2011

2011-03-19T19:18:00.001-07:00

From your Racing Director:

Something a bit different for this year folks with the goal being to increase racing opportunities and experiences for club members. As a result you will notice more events compared to previous years. Save for the end of year Club Championships, these events will only be open to SCC club members. Again, save for the end of year Club Championships, there will be no registration just prior to the event, no registration fees or cash prizes ... just bragging rights which ranks pretty high on the cyclist Testosterone scale. I'm planning to run shorter, simple and safe events in places where we will not need a lot of volunteers. Additional details per race will be made available approximately 2 weeks prior to each event. I plan to run the Sunday events fairly early in the day for safety purposes and to allow for a group ride afterwards.

Please note this next section well*

ALL events will be pre-registration only via email with deadlines indicated. One of the club policies state that our main method of communicating with our members is via email and there are good reasons for this [i.e., not everyone can attend all workout sessions at DD Track and we don't have the resources to call everyone]. That being said some information will also be posted on our website and our FaceBook page. So ... make sure you have a valid email address and write it neatly on your membership form so Michel can easily decipher. In the past, I've heard members complain that they haven't received emails from the club. This was likely due to the club having an incorrect address on file or possibly ending up in your Spam folder.
