Great news - thank you Neil for organising this....

Right ho!

The Club's AGM will be held on Monday 12th December.

A thread will be set up on the forum and a draft agenda will be placed there.

Do let John or Edward know if you have any proposals for rule changes and motions.

Sounds right, thank you Neil for organising this.

So we go with Thursday night. When do you want to start; after the Hill Climb?

Thanks Jamie, this is always a great event. You don't need to be a Cat 2 ,3 or 4 to take part. Just a member of LVCC.

The only thing you can't do is overtake John on the President's Lap!

Looking forward to hearing about your ride Jamie.

I think John may be driving up and so can offer lifts.

If he is then you will need to be at the Town Hall by 8.30 ...
Post below if you are interested ...

Thanks Mark

I am running the Hill Climb.I will need some help on the morning . Any one want to be the start time keeper and starter...
We may also need a few marshals on the hill..

Neil, John and I spoke about this last night.
Can we agree a start date , even if it's just a bunch of LVCC members agreeing to go on the same night. If we get enough of us we can move to hiring it for a session . The club can, up to a point, provide a financial back up. The week after the Hill Climb might be a good week for a start

Yes, I don't think we will get 15+ a week at first.
However, I think a couple of hires by the club would be a good idea. The club can cope with covering the odd loss..
So lets go for making the open sessions our nights.

When shall we start?

Glad we cleared that one up...

Is September too early?
Otherwise Mark, this sounds admirable. I noticed that Full Gas have posted the schedule for the Track sessions over the winter. I think their nights are going to be Tuesday and Wednesday...

What do you need from the Club to make this happen. We are goimg to be spending money over the next year on the Race HQ and a timing system for TTs. So I 'd prefer that this was self supporting from the start.

Will the Trikes be there as well?

Lets do this ...

It's going to work best if you all go on the same night at the same time.
I would imagine that this will start from October onwards?

Dear members,

The half yearly meeting is when the we meet up to plan the club's events for the following year. This mostly means agreeing the proposed dates for the Races and Time Trials we will run in 2016. Your officers then spend the autumn going to regional meetings to agree the final dates for these events. I know, it's a hard life being an LVCC committee member.

It's also when we look for" volunteers" to run an event. So if you want to run a TT or be part of the Road Race team then do let me know.

The meetings also an opportunity for members to reflect on what the club's achieved over the past 6 months and look forward to the next 6 months.

The full agenda will be posted shortly but for now please put this date in your diary. If you want any thing raised at the meeting then do get in touch with me or John.

Edward, Club Chairman.

What about a postal order?

I have posted the date of the 1/2 yearly
It's the 25th July

Once we have set the dates and if we have the time then perhaps we can have a discusion about the club committee.

The Half yearly is when the club plans its events for the following year.

Full agenda to follow.

Thanks , clealy sir is suited !

That'a a new one...

Francis , there's a fair bit of interest in Audax/ Sportive rides

Are you into that?

LEA VALLEY C.C. REUNION 2016
SUNDAY JULY 10th, 1.30pm (ish) at BURTON END LODGE, nr STANSTED, ESSEX
Dear club members, ex-club members, friends of the club, friends, family, et al.
Yet again time is racing on, and soon we hope to welcome you all again at our Burton End HUT. Sorry, I am a bit late with the particulars, but there’s a lot going on ‘Chez Frida’
Not to worry, let’s make it a memorable event as always. I am planning the usual extensive cold buffet, with some hot additions and plenty of choice for vegetarians. The afters buffet will be rich and varied as usual. Anybody who would like to bring a dish to supplement the feast is welcome, please let me know. If you can arrive early to help lay stuff out, that will be a great help too.
We know money is tight, so we have held our prices for yet another-other year. YES! Now get your friends out, bring wives and kids, dig out any old Comet, Crescent and Lea Valley members you know of, and come and enjoy yourselves at our original country H.Q. New members will find this a great occasion to meet the wider club, match faces to names on the address list, and find people who can tell you some stories about the names on the trophies. Don’t be shy, just get talking, have some splendid food, a glass of Michael’s homebrew and maybe finish it off with a game of petanque.
We are not too hard to find: From London, take the M11 and exit at junction 8 – follow the signs for Stansted Airport. Just after the overpass, turn left to LONG TERM PARKING. Pass the Hilton Hotel, straight on at the long term parking and mini roundabout, and follow the lane. Meander through Burton End village and on to The Ash public house on the right. Follow parking instructions posted at the top of our path, which is marked by flags. Limited parking is available neat the hut, for those who have trouble walking. Wear sensible shoes, the condition of the path and lawn is again quite uneven. The Ash postcode is CM24 8UQ.
See the arrow on this map: http://bit.ly/1O6Pmny
Those who come early can help us lay out chairs and tables, drink provided. Thanks already ! Some bednights are available too, for the not-too-fussy (and a bit deaf). And you can help us clear up on Monday too, thanks again ! Book in on 020 89860109 (ansaphone) or e-mail to mandfathome@gmail.com
To help cater for the correct amount, please send in the booking form a.s.a.p. However, we try to be flexible, so if numbers change, or you only find you can only make it at the last minute, please phone or text me on 07981 745598. Always room for a few more! Anybody lost, or other problems on the day ; try Michael’s [NEW] mobile on 07910 332294
I hope to see lots of you, Frida Wezel

As you can see I have also set this up as an event on the FB page.

Can we start a conversation here or there about the Bill Major, the Reunion and getting there and back....

Thanks Jamie,

This an important date in the Club's social calendar. It's when member old and new get together as part of the LVCC family.

We have , this year, revived the tradition of holding the Bill Major Club 25 on the morning of the race. That will be run from the Race HQ .
More details to come on what's happening on the mornng of the Reunion. I think we are planning to hold a sale of the old kit as well..

Edward.

Just done it Jamie!

Members, the first night of the Tens is nearly upon us . It's always a busy one for the club.

So , if you are not riding please come down to help Joe . Signing on starts at 6.

Joe will need help with signing on andthe "box" will need help in counting riders, time keeping and pushing off riders...

If Joe is busy when you arrive then please come and speak to Me , John or Don. I am sure we can find you a job...

Thanks Jamie, those are some good ideas.

The race secrtary's report is standing agenda item for committee meetings and I ll ask Trevor to follow this up with you.
