Ride Leaders' Open Evening

Leader:	Start Time: 7:00 pm	Start Location: Old Mill Hall - meeting room upstairs
Description: Dear Ride Leaders, Firstly a big “thank you” for your contributions last year! You will be aware of the surveys we’ve done in the close season, the feedback on our rides and ethos as a club has been really positive and we have some great suggestions for the future, which we’d like to share with you. We have also uploaded the skeleton of the 2015 Ride Calendar on the website. A few of the rides are taken, but by and large, the calendar is still up for debate. We can move the dates of special rides around to an extent, and add new ones where we have calendar gaps. We’d very much like to get your input and guidance on these so we’re holding an Open Evening to shape the calendar – we’d love to get you all together on Monday 9th March, from 7pm to 9pm, in Old Mill Hall. It will be relatively informal, and we have an outline agenda for the evening: * Showing you the results of the surveys – this should take less than 30 minutes and provide some inspiration, and pride in what we achieved together last year * Ratifying the 2015 Ride Calendar – we will be as interactive as possible, using IT to help re-shape the calendar, and help you to claim the rides you’re interested in. What would be really useful preparation is to have a browse around the 2015 rides that are already on the website, have a think about any you’d like to claim, and also about any ride ideas you have too. We will also agree the approach and timetable for bridging rides on some Tuesday evenings, so that we can aid riders who may wish to develop between the grades. * Question and Answer session – we’ll cover your questions on guidelines, calendar, whatever you want to ask (within reason!) Looking forward to seeing you on the 9th March, please RSVP so we know how many biscuits to bring along! Potential ride leaders are also welcome, but please check with Chris beforehand!
