New Site

For those who have been to our site before, you'll notice that we did a complete revamp from the previous edition. Our goal with the new site was to make information about the club (be it routes, racing, clothing, etc) easy to find and access. We also wanted another way to disseminate information to club members- hence this blog.

So far the response to the new site has been very positive. We've received several messages about how sharp the site looks and how good the information is regarding different items. This is great! We love getting feed back on how we're doing- both good and bad. After all, we can't fix what is wrong if you don't tell us.

With that in mind, if you come upon a mistake, have a suggestion for a part of the site, or what more information to be written on a topic, please let us know! We want to make this site the best it can be!

BGR Success!

First of all- a huge thank you everyone who helped make the Cycling Club's presence felt at the BGR activities fair. Mike did an amazing job crafting a platform for the rollers and the others (Wil, Sarah, Will, Andy, and Naveen) did an excellent job talking to perspective members. We talked to over a hundred people and had 50+ sign up for our e-mail list- which is a record for the club!

This is a great sign for the club and everyone is super excited about future rides and races!

Welcome Back!

The 2009-2010 school year is shaping up to be a fantastic year of racing and riding! We'll be starting things off with our annual booth at the Boiler Gold Rush activities fair in the Amory on August 18 from 11-1. If you are interested in joining this would be a perfect chance to come and talk with current club members and get a feel for what the club is all about!

Following that school starts on Monday, August 24th with the first mountain bike race hosted by Butler University that weekend. Check the e-mail list and attend our first meeting on August 27th at 7 pm in ME 116 for more information on that.

Also, check back here for news, updates, and race reports. All important announcements will also be communicated via the e-mail list, so if you haven't sign up for that yet- go to the home page and follow the link.

Boiler Up!
