A Good Weekend

Its been a good weekend of club runs this weekend. 16 or so for both days of the Very Steady group (with some people out both days), and 14 or so in both the Steady and Fast groups today. Good riding, well disciplined with little or no incident (one minor tangle in the Very Steadies today) and importantly no one being left behind to fend for themselves. In addition there was an excellent turn out for Marcus’s Strength Training Program in Saltburn.
Well done and a big thank you to all those ride leaders who turned up.
On another note, winter is most definitely coming, so it’s time for everyone to get mudguards fitted. In fact they’re a requirement if you’re coming on a club run in winter. Crud RoadRacer are my preferred guards, though some prefer SKS Raceblades. Others are also probably available. You pays your money and you takes your choice…

Website Stats

Here’s a little table that shows how many visitors our website gets. OK, we’re not going to be rivalling The BBC or Huffington Post, but the site is by us, for us. And with 300 site visits a day, it seems to be reaching everyone, vindicating the efforts that John Kelly and his fellow contributors have put in.

Club Communications

You’re probably all used to getting spam communications from our membership secretary, Dave Kirton, but lately I’ve taken part of that burden from him and have sent out a couple of club-wide emails.
The trouble with things like that is that you have no idea if people actually get to see them. They could end up in a junk folder or a spam folder and no one would be any the wiser.
Can I ask everyone to check their spam and junk and see if they’ve had any emails from me (I sent one today, Tuesday 21st) and they ought to be from secretary@clevelandwheelers.com. If it’s in spam or junk, do whatever you need to to make it not go there in future. Unless that’s where you actually want them to go… But I promise, my emails aren’t half as dull as Dave’s 😉
