Please ensure when you

return a trophy you have
had it engraved, and please
remember to return it so it
can be presented to the
deserving recipient for this
year!
Despite the cold weather at

this time of year it is all the
more important to keep
hydrated and re-fuelling on
and off the bike. Hydration
is often overlooked in
winter. Be aware of this to
ensure you reduce risk of
illness and infection.

BSCA Rollers 7th February 2015

Power Station Club Rugeley
A change of venue this year as club coach Nick Selibas is building preparations towards this popular event. A
great day was had by all riders who attended last year and we fully expect the same again.
Please keep an eye on the club website for more information in the coming weeks.
As ever these events do take some organising and it would be wonderful if any club members who can spare
some time on the day to assist with a range of tasks can make contact with Nick or Olivia Cooper.
In case you were not aware .
ZipVit/LichfieldCCC Youth Races

Curborough
Many of you may already be well aware that up on the British Cycling
upcoming events pages the dates for the first three Curborough races
are advertised and available for entry. Now is the time to think about
planning for these events.
Race 1 28th March 2015
Race 2 18th April 2015
There are other events in the West Midlands that you may consider
entering and following a request from a number of the Youth
members the committee are planning a Race Information meeting
which will be held on Monday February 9th in the Hawthorn Room at
Friary Grange Leisure Centre please look out for more information on
the club website and at the Presentation Evening.
The session will give riders and parents the opportunity to discuss
and share experiences and ask questions of some of the more
knowledgeable members of the club.
This is a great idea brought to the committee by the younger
members of the club so please make every effort to attend.
At the last committee meeting Toby Barnes

and Amy Selibas provide some feedback and
great ideas on behalf of the younger
members.
The committee along with Toby and Amy are
considering how we can support as many of
these as possible. Next time you see them
ask them how it went and if you have any
more ideas pass them on so they can raise
them in future!
The committee may even steal them for
themselves!!
Excellent timing so you have

plenty of time to get training for
the BSCA event!
