First Beginner Ride May 8th, 2008

The weather, or threat of weather, played a part in keeping the turnout low
to the first beginner’s rides of the year. That didn’t stop the groups
from combining and hitting the trails co-ed.

Everyone enjoyed the ride. This photo was taken at the end of the
ride and as you can see everyone was still smiling.

First Club Meeting April 17th, 2008

The inaugural meeting of the Gold Rush Cycling Club took place at 7:00pm in the Lounge Room at the Rec Centre. The new club directors met for an hour with approximately 35 interested cyclists.

The directors, who have been busy working with Cycling BC to register the club, consist of Lee Crowe (President), John Courtney (Vice-President), Charlie Freeman (Treasurer), Brenda Courtney (Secretary) and Dwayne Sales (Director at large).

The directors presented to the group the Gold Rush Cycling Club Constitution along with the Gold Rush Cycling Club By-Laws. As well the directors discussed that the initial objective of the club will be to establish a presence in the community. Through member input the club will prioritize the first years activities.

Attending the meeting were cyclists that were concerned that the club was strictly a mountain biking club. The directors expressed that the club would like to represent and support all forms of cycling in Quesnel.

There were lots of questions from the floor with many centering around cyclist commuting in and around the city. These cyclist expressed a desire to see the club work with the city to improve safety for all cyclists. Dwayne Sales offered to attend meetings and represent the club with city council.

Everyone present was given information on how to register as a member with the Gold Rush Cycling Club.
