Website Update

November 25th, 2009 | BU Cycle Team | News

Hey Everyone,

Since I have had some time over break, I decided to work on the site. I have updated sponsors minus neuvation atm. I still have to work on the images but I needed to have them up. Also, the Schedule is up and the road team roster is updated. I am still doing more work to the sight and last years roster will be available shortly. I am trying to keep on top of it and any feedback is helpful.

Best,
Robert Winnett

Cycling Update

November 9th, 2009 | BU Cycle Team | Important Notices

Hey Everyone,

I would like to thank everyone who turned in their forms. I still need some cap forms from people so please contact me via bike@bu.edu to drop it off.

Clothing Order:
The order should be sent out shortly. We hit a snag with design but everything is coming together nicely. Estimated turn around time is 8-10 weeks so we could have at the start of spring semester but they will definitely be in by race time!!!

Rule Changes:
There have been some rule changes for collegiate cycling. Please read up on these before you potentially go out and waste money. Rule Changes Found Here

Sponsorships:
Bike Shop: TBD - Still working hard on this. The task is not easy
Neuvation: Wheel sponsor. At the next meeting we will go over what we get from them.
Rudy Project: Helmet and Glasses at crazy low prices. Email for this to come. Also we get %40 off everything at e-rudy.com. Email Bike@bu.edu for the BRO
Defeet: Get some really sweet socks, knee warmers and arm warmers at great prices. Email bike@bu.edu for discount code.
GU Energy: More to come later but great deals on GU Products
We are always looking for other sponsors to help out our team. It can be donations or product discounts; we are interested in what you have to offer. Email Bike@bu.edu if you are interested in helping out our team in some way.

ECCC Meeting:
Robert - President and Preston - Treasurer are going to be attending the ECCC Fall Meeting at Stevens College. Should be an interesting event.

Weekend Rides:
Everyone should be trying to come out to the weekend rides. This past weekend we had good turn outs of 10 Saturday and 8 Sunday. The more the merrier people!! When you come out and ride you get stronger. Coming out now puts you that much further ahead later (IE: When racing). It is highly recommended that you attend the rides but they are not mandatory.

That’s all for now.
Keep riding!

Clothing Forms Due

October 13th, 2009 | BU Cycle Team | Important Notices, News

Hey Everyone,

So it is that time of year again. Order forms are due on Oct 15th, 2 days away. I know a fit kit was promised and it is on the way. Hopefully it will be here tomorrow. Tentatively, I am planning on having a meeting Thursday from 5 - 9 at FitRec. Come at your convenience to try on the kit, if the fit kit is here. At this meeting I will collect any outstanding forms, any dues owed and all clothing orders. Email bike@bu.edu if you need more time or can not make it then. The plan is to have the order out a.s.a.p.

If the fit kit is not here, I will be in the FitRec Lobby from 5 - 7 collecting forms of people who already know what sizes fit and what they want. The rest I will hold off until then. If you still want to order clothing, email bike@bu.edu either asking for members or non-members form. I will respond a.s.a.p.

There will be an email sent out once any/all plans are finalized so please keep an eye out for that email.

On another note: It would be nice to have as many people as possible come out for the weekend rides. It is not required by any means but if you plan on racing in the spring, it is highly recommended and you will only be better off then.

That’s all for now,

Kit Order Forms

October 7th, 2009 | BU Cycle Team | News

Hey Everyone,

I know most of you have the order form already but if anyone needs another one, this is where you can get it.

For members click Here

For non-members click Here

Due Date: Oct 15th (8 Days away)

A fit kit is on the way!! So what is going to happen is once the fit kit has arrived, a meeting will take place. The meeting will be an informal meeting, where you can get an update on the team (if there is anything new) and try on the fit kit. This meeting will take place ASAP so keep an eye out for the information. Unfortunately, it will probably be on a day or twos notice.
Note: Please have a general idea of the size you want. This will make trying on sizes a quick and painless process.

I apologize in advance for any inconvenience this is going to cause.

On a different note, this weekend is looking good. Come out for the rides Saturday and Sunday. More info to come later on but just make sure you are free to be there!!!
