Rick Crawford has a few inpiring words at the end of this article.  And he's right, just a little involvement in collegiate cycling can go a long ways.

    

Next Meeting - Thursday, Jan 29, 6pm

Same place as last time, on the second floor of the Student Rec Center.  If you don't have a Cat Card, please send me an e-mail (via "Contact" page of website) with your complete name so I can get you access to the Rec.   Please do so by Wednesday, Jan 28th.

Also, our 2009 team clothing will be in and ready for pick-up.  We ordered extras so if you missed the order, you've got another chance.  The other big item on the agenda is officer elections.  We're electing the following UA Cycling Club officers: 

Public Relations Officer

Records Officer

Any club member can run for office.  I hope to see you all the 29th!

  

Ride with UA Cycling on MLK

The UA Cycling Club will be hosting a ride at 10am on MLK Day (Jan. 19th). Please meet the club at the Flagpole just west of Old Main on campus. Plan on riding between 12 and 20 miles. This is a no-drop ride, so we won't leave anyone behind. Unless you're Andy and you start the ride on a flat tire...

The ride will be slow and all beginners are welcomed and encouraged. Depending on the size of the group, we may choose to break the ride up a bit. Helmets are required and please bring a spare inner tube.

See you tomorrow!

First UA Cycling Club Meeting.

 Please consider joining the UA Cycling club for the first meeting of 2009.  Here's the important info:

Where: The Student Rec Center, in the PACR.  It's upstairs and straight ahead on your right.  Please, don't forget your CatCard.  If you do, or you simply don't have one, let the fronk desk people know you're there for a cycling club meeting and hopefully they'll let you upstairs.  

When: 6:00pm; Thursday Jan 15th!

What to bring: If you'd like to become a member, a checkbook.  Our dues are just $35/year and you'll find out about all the cool perks tomorrow (at the meeting).

If you can't make it: Join the listserv on this website under the "Contact" page.  Then you'll learn a thing or two about the club from our meeting notes. 

We have a little bit of free stuff to give away so don't miss out!

Bike Fix-It Day #2

The UA Cycling Club will set up shop on the campus mall, once again, to spread some good will among the students and faculty pedaling around campus.  The club will be fixing bikes from 10am - 2pm on Wednesday, Jan 14th--that's the FIRST DAY OF CLASS. 

We can do minor adjustments and safety checks.  We'd be happy to lube chains and fill up your tires if they're running low on air.  Spread the word!
