Organizing a Ride
Organizing a Brevet or Populaire is pretty easy. Here are some helpful
tips:
-
Notify the appropriate Chapter VP that you would like to organize a ride on the schedule (the contact information is on the Board Info page).
Indicate what contact information you would like to appear in the Newsletter and Website.
-
About a week before the ride, post a reminder on the club mailing list about the ride. If it is a brevet,
include a reminder of required equipment. If you are not yet on the mailing list,
click here to subscribe.
-
Make sure you have enough Control Cards for the brevet - contact the appropriate Chapter VP if you need more.
-
Complete a control card for each rider who registers for the ride, at least a day before the ride. Fill
out a couple of extra ones just in case you have riders who did not preregister show up. Also, fill in the bike inspection checklist with
the names of those who have registered for the ride
-
Bring copies of the club application form and CCA waiver for any non-members or members who have not yet renewed.
-
If the ride is a brevet, check each rider's bike to make sure they have the required equipment. Also ask
the rider if he or she would like a medal, and collect the money for it at the time of the bike inspection.
If the rider is not a club member, collect the day ride fee and make sure the rider fills out the required
forms. Fill in the totals in the bike check form.
-
Control Cards should be returned to the appropriate Chapter VP for the brevet. The completed bike
inspection form should also be sent to the Chapter VP. A cheque with the total collected for medals, day ride fees and memberships should be
sent to the club Treasurer, Jim Griffin along with application and waiver forms collected (the address is on the application form).
-
If you have any questions, don't hesitate to contact your Chapter VP.
