Back in July we had 94 members and I threw down the challenge to reach 100 members before the end of the year. Well we have smashed it....our 112th member joined yesterday!
Welcome to the following recent members:
Horace White, Chrystal Sheldon, Jolie Pyke, Martin Cockram, Jo Barker, Rohan Dubash (our 100th member) Jake Shaw, David Irwin, Hannah Smith, Jonathan Roddick, Lucy East, Jon Grubb, Bill Carman, Peter Wells, Chris Rees, Mike Reynell, Barbara Bradbury and Jonathan Lees.
The question is how large do we want the club to become? Do we put a cap on it? Comments please.
We don't want to end up with 500 members with no one knowing who is who. Quite a few are non cycling older ex racers. Most new members are joining to cycle either on or off road. I think a max of 200. The Epsom cc have 200 and are still a small sociable club. We spoke about having a cheaper option for non cycling members or if you have moved away but want to keep up with the club. A social member option.
