Hello SYVCC If you ordered a kit in the 2nd clothing order it should be here by the end of April. We will have a few extras if you missed out on the order. - The club is trying to gauge interest in starting back up the woman’s ride. Please email if you are interested in participating in a 2 times a month ride. We are trying to get an idea of how many people would take part, and possibly also interest in helping organize the ride. thomsonjeff@msn.com
- Look out for details on the first club TT of the year in the next few weeks, it will be in May, and Thompson Ogilve and I are working on the segments and will put together the Teams and get out all the details soon. The TT’s have become the clubs signature events and we hope to get a great turn out again this year.
- The WNR group is going to meet for drinks at 6:15p this week after the ride. Please feel free to come by even if you can’t make the ride. Everyone is welcome to attend. We are meeting at the Draughtsman in Solvang.
