Barrie Cycling Club

ROUTE CHANGE FOR 15KM TT - MAY 1st

After several of us rode the proposed 15km time trial course, we have made a change to a circuit instead of “out and back”.

Here is the new course. The start is the same as posted before, approx. 300m west of Crosslands on Flos 4, then go west on Flos 4, turn right (north) on Vigo Road, turn right (east) on Flos 7, turn right (south) on Crosslands Road, turn right (west) on Flos 4 to finish just beyond the starting point.

Be aware that there is a stop sign at the corner of Flos 7 and Crosslands Road.

See you there.

Well, after a week of record temperatures, we’re set to have the 2nd Tuesday night ride tomorrow night from Fred Grant Square in downtown Barrie.

This is just a quick reminder to those members who haven’t got their 2008 membership forms in to the club, please print, fill out, and bring your completed forms and payment to the ride. If you haven’t returned your 2008 forms, we can not allow you on the group ride due to our insurance policies. So please, everyone get your forms in to us, so that we can all enjoy a terrific season of cycling in and around the Barrie area.

Looking forward to seeing lots of you out tomorrow for what looks to be another great day!

Please be there a little earlier to complete the paperwork so that the ride can leave on time.

2. Club Event & Ride Schedule
We have now posted our event schedule for the season. I invite everyone to review the schedule and if there are any questions please speak to one of the executive. We have an exciting and full schedule planned, with Tuesday and Sunday rides, Thursday TT’s and road training, Interclub races and special rides to be added as the season progresses.

3. BCC Charity Ride:
On Saturday, June 16th the club will be hosting a charity mountain bike ride to benefit the Regional Cancer Centre at RVH. Mark this date on your calendar and plan to attend, either as a participant or as a volunteer. The “Ride for the Centre” will benefit a great cause in our community and we will be posting further details in the next few weeks.

4. Club Clothing:
A number of members have purchased clothing and we expect to receive delivery at the end of the month. Full payment is due at the time of delivery. I will be contacting all who have ordered clothing to confirm total cost and the balance of payment that will be required.

The casual Sunday touring rides will begin Sunday April 15, 2007 at 9am, from Fred Grant Square.

These rides are geared towards any level of rider, and nobody will be ‘dropped’. We encourage anyone and everyone to come out and ride on Sunday mornings!

Starting in May, once the weather warms up, these rides will begin at 8:30am.
