"Weather Calls" at the track

This is just to clarify the “weather calls” for our track practices.
Practice will be cancelled if the track surface is wet. If conditions change, practice will continue at the discretion of our coach.
If weather prevents us from using the track tonight , April 30, we do have the field house for indoor training. Tonight will be the final evening that the field house is available to us.
Help to sweep the track before each practice is always appreciated. It usually takes three or four volunteers to show up around 5:45 to sweep gravel from the track.

Computrainer testing tomorrow, and April showers...


The Computrainer 5km time trial test is available if a few SCC members would like to take it tomorrow night, May 25. The test gives information on wattage output, and with your heart rate monitor you can get a heart rate profile to help structure your training. If you would like to perform the test, please contact Battista as soon as possible at coach@sudburycc.ca

And despite having the track available to us now, the weather might not always co-operate. If the track surface is wet, we still have access to the field house until the end of April for indoor training.

2013 Membership Registration and Indoor Practices


Sudbury Cycling Club 2013 membership registration is now available, and indoor practices for registered members will start this Thursday, January 31.

Membership registration:

Sudbury Cycling Club membership registration is now available online at http://www.sudburycc.ca/membership/

Please be sure to pay for OCA insurance as part of your registration. The only insurance option available at the moment is the $39 OCA general membership insurance.

A second option for insurance will be to buy a 2013 UCI license. It is expected that UCI licenses will be available on our registration system next week.

If you plan to buy a UCI license, but want to complete your membership registration right away, then please pay for the $39 general membership insurance now with your registration. For this current situation where the general membership insurance is the only option, OCA has told us that they will make a credit or refund arrangement to handle any insurance overlap if you buy a UCI license later.

Indoor Practice at Delki Dozzi Hall:

Indoor practices for those with 2013 memberships will start this Thursday evening, January 31, at 6:00 pm at Delki Dozzi Hall.

A completed membership registration, including insurance payment, will be required to participate.

2013 Season


Hi,

I respectfully ask that you take a few moments and read the message below.

As we are now wrapping up 2012, we need to look forward to the 2013 season.

Over the past year have you thought...

-This could be organized better
-We need a proper banquet
-I want to change the clubs clothing
-We need some good races
-I could do a better job running the club
-What is going on with the club?

If you have answered yes to any of these questions then maybe it is time for you to step up and volunteer.

Serving on the executive does not require any specific knowledge, training, or experience (perhaps the treasurer would be the exception to this).  The only thing that you need is a passion for the club, a little time and effort, and wanting to do what you think is best for the SCC.

It is clear when you read our Facebook page that there are many active members who want events, and want change; however up to now few have said they are willing to do something to create change.

Half of the executive is elected every year, so there will always be continuity, and someone to answer questions that the new volunteers have.  Additionally I know that the current exec members that are leaving their posts will be more than willing to help with any concerns new people may have.

What you should expect:

-A two hour meeting every couple of months
-A bit of take away work (i.e. Reserving a banquet spot, answering emails, volunteering at races etc)
-The respect and admiration of your peers
-For 2013 we are willing to do a trial of a free SCC membership to exec members

Who are we currently Nominating:

-Vice President
-Treasurer
-Race Director
-Membership Chair (Seat Vacant from 2012, only a one year term)

What do do:

Email Sudburycc@gmail.com with the name and position of the member that you want to nominate by December the 21st.

Once a member has been nominated the exec will confirm with him or her that they accept the nomination.

If more than one person accepts the nomination we will have an election.  If only one person accepts the nomination for a certain position they will be acclaimed.

Please, thoughtfully consider what you can do to help the club in 2013.

Best regards,

Guy Zito
