Hi folks,
a colleague and myself are looking to start a work based cycling club. Now i know starting a club has been touched on in another recent thread, however i dont want to hijack that thread!
We are looking to represent cyclists within our workforce so that we have a voice and also to promote cycling as a viable commute. We will be moving to a city centre location at some point in the near future and we suspect there will be many more (myself included) getting on their bike to commute to work. Everything is very much in its infancy, however we are also keen on doing the social side of things. Is it worth contacting the British Cycling org? Do we really need insurance etc just for a small scale jolly once or twice a week? What is really different between a jolly and an organised club ride? Sorry details are a little vague at the minute, but as i said this is a very new idea.
Any info would be appreciated, or indeed any ideas along the lines of what you would like to see from a work based club if you had the option at your place of work.
Admin please move this thread if you think it suits elsewhere (like the recycle bin )
