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
President, Boston University Cycling

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,

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!!!

Hub On Wheels

September 17th, 2009 | BU Cycle Team | News, Rides

Boston’s 5th Annual Hub On Wheels Ride is going to be taking place Sept 27th. It would be amazing if we could get a ton of people out there to volunteer. So the deal with this is:

1.) The more volunteers we provide, the more money the team gets. This money helps pay for transportation and housing on race weekends.

2.) All the details are in:
A.) They ask for us to be at Gov’t center by 7 am in order to have us out and on course in plenty of time. B.) We are going to be road marshals.Road marshals are out on the course helping the riders stay on course.
C.) Once the sweep riders (after the last riders) come through, you may join the ride doing either the 30, or 50 mile loop. It is estimated you will be back at the start by 3 pm (depending on the loop you do). Last

The plan is to meet at Marsh Plaza at 6, 6:15. We will be on the road by 6:30. The ride there isn’t far but we want to be on time (meaning early).

Those are the details. Any questions feel free to ask and I will get back to you as soon as possible.

Please Email bike@bu.edu if you want to volunteer and have not emailed us yet. Thanks

One final note: Saturday the 26th is the Mayor Cup Pro Crit. Go out and see it. It should be an awesome race to watch. Some of the best riders in the area are going to be racing and they are super fast. Go out and see them!!! Some of the ECCC best will be there also!

Thanks,

E -Board
