British Cycling being embarassing, obsequious idiots ...

6.
my membership expires in December. I've already emailed to say I won't be renewing
and have cancelled the dd.
I've set a reminder to join cuk when it runs out so I have insurance for commuting.

Just had a questioner asking why i left !
The problem not going away then.

BC Resignation Email

I regret to inform you that I will not be renewing my BC Membership.

I was already unhappy with BC since it does not seem to have any enthusiasm for preserving road racing at grass roots level; the very activity which the BLRC (one of BC's roots) did so much to promote.

Even so I would have continued my membership had it not been for the Shell deal.

I am not prepared to support a cycling organisation which takes money from and advertises for a fossil fuel company.

Yours no longer!

London Clarion provides insurance and is far more fun than CUK

Damn! just too late for me - Half an hour ago I paid £50 to Cycling UK.

I'd have preferred the Clarion. I won't forget this next year.

Clubman, You could still join London Clarion for £5:

' We also offer a £5 membership for anyone that already has Third-Party Liability insurance through Cycling UK, CTC, London Cycling Campaign or British Cycling'

How dare they! I, for one, will be complaining directly to the Committee of Someone That Gives a Crap.

I think you've yet again completely missed the vibe of a thread.

And how wonderful it was.

Southwark Cyclist being an embarrassing obsequious idiot.

Dear DogandBellCrew,

There seems to be something wrong here - I think you must have some how slipped into the wrong forum.

Before you started posting the word 'committee' had, to my knowledge, almost never been mentioned here but you have used the 'c' word in almost every post.

You sound a bit like a PR man working for BC - are you by any chance an employee of BC?

Yours sincerely,

Clubman.

How did you get expelled?

Did you?

LCC held this grudge for 8 years?

And BC threatened to expel you for going on a ride because of that?

I feel we're not getting the whole story here.

Is there a Full Picture Committee we can get a report from?

Are these upstanding paid-up members?

Just upstanding because no one can fart while seated and pedalling.

Upstanding as in erect?

Coz shirley sure the only people that are on committees are the people that get boners about committees.

The secretary will have typed up the minutes, maybe request a facsimile?

Just to interrupt this lovely agm to say I think it’s clearly wonderful how British cycling are using all of shell’s funding to reduce the national road series to four races next year…right

Bmx National series is down to 4 weekends too, only 3 venues confirmed.

Has anyone alerted Jackie Weaver?

In this time of goodwill and thanksgiving, I would like to say thank you lord for the ignore button, you have truly blessed us.
