The ?th Annual New Years Day bike ride will be held....New Years day! We will meet at 8:30 am at Ridge Park. We will ride at a comfortable pace, but quick enough to keep us warm. There was some metion of brunch afterwards at the Wilson residence. (I only had one glass of wine!) But I am a woman of my word. All I ask is that you RSVP so I know how many casseroles (read liquor) to make. Phone, email, text if you are coming.

For that man who travels by his own exertions no day can be dull and no journey without an abiding interest....Very wisely it was said, All travel is dull exactly in proportion to its rapidity." HW Tilman, "Snow on the Equator," McMillian, 1938.

I found the following at the International Bicycling Fund.

Bicycle clubs usually develop out of a series of activities; recreation rides, training rides and races, bicyclists' rights campaign....an activist agenda...

The question is what is the goal of the Beverly Bike Club? There didn’t seem to be an interest in trail rides. There was a small, regular group for the evening rides and a few people showed up for advocacy at the RideCivil.

Stop by Beverly Bike & Ski and fill out a membership application and pay your dues. Dues will once again be $10.00.

The club has a site on Yahoo Groups. This looks like a great way to contact other club members. Right now there are 3 people signed on (hey, it's a start!) Any other thoughts on how to contact members would be greatly appreciated. Email me a info@beverlybikeclub.org. Hope to hear from members on how we can rebuild the club.

If anyone is interested in initiating rides on different days or different times than our usual Thursday night ride, contact us at info@beverlybikeclub.org. There are usually riders looking for rides, so if you let us know when you're riding, we can put people in contact with one another

We have had some great rides, especially on Saturday and Sunday mornings, thanks to all who have organized/participated in the past!
