starting a bike club???

[Irulan]

having just started a mountain biking club, I think Corsair's idea is a good one... test the waters with the existing club to see if they are open to new blood, new ideas, or if they are entrenched in what they've been doing. The answers you get when you ask will tell you a whole lot.

For example, I was in a club that was both mountain bikers and roadies. When I asked about trail advocacy, I was told " we arent' going to do that". Not, "we'll support what ever you want to get going". Big difference, IMO.
