LFGSS CC - LFGSS Cycle Club

Back to the real question: How many times a year do we want access to the London velodrome?

The 'drome is £120 per hour to book, and you might imagine a 4 hour afternoon session rounding out at £500 with other minor costs. If we had 50 people per session paying £10 then it's possible, and any profits would roll into the club which would re-invest it in the club or a future event.

So how frequently do we want to run such sessions and what is the demand?

Monthly sessions?
Quarterly sessions?
Annual sessions?

I personally think quarterly would get the biggest bang for buck, ensuring that we get the numbers and that it feels like an event that calcifies interest in riding the velodrome and becomes a decent signal to others interested. It would also allow organisers to identify sponsors for whom support at this frequency is possible.

Monthly I think might struggle for numbers after a while, and this frequency would be really well covered by other clubs who likely want to run a frequent fixture. We'd be serving our springboard/gateway function well by not treading too much on their toes.

Annual I think would be too seldom for most of us.

Other suggestions?

Quarterly sounds right and I say that as one who would rather watch/volunteer than ride.

Any chance of getting the (owl-free) cc jersey in time for my birthday in February?

Definitely on the jersey... pre-sale should go up by the end of this month with a 4-6 week lead time on production. Meaning that the Christmas post will screw it up, but expect it around Christmas or early January.

Quarterly definitely, especially when starting out, you'd likely to get a bigger turnout than weekly/monthly.

It allow most of us with inflexible timetable to make plan.

...also it would allow us to do lists.

Aw yiss, mother flicking list.

Woop! Slightly early birthday present to moi self. Nice :-).

Quarterly sounds perfect. I'd be down for that. Any less and not many will turn up.

Only LFGSS seem to embrace literally anyone with an interest in cycling, be that commuting, recreational, educational, mtb, cx, fun, track, time trial, charity, trick, sportive, bmx, audax, road racing and so one, you name it.

Y u no mention polo?

I don't think that's true. Apart from tricks and BMX, I think members of MDCC do all the items in your list, and consider that club membership enhances their experience of all of them. I'm sure the same could be said of a great many other substantial regional clubs.

Do you even bike?

Back to the real question: How many times a year do we want access to the London velodrome?

Can we have extra sessions in the winter when HH's off?

Y u no mention polo?

He did, in a manner of speaking; polo is just a subset of trick cycling.

Not when Louis does it.

Could Rory's forum name be change to Number 5?

And every list should have

1. Rory
   
   

In it for fear that it might not be complete.

Well, the lights are on, but there may be nobody home.

What does Rory have against Rameye?
