Eynsham Cricket Club Cassington Rd, Eynsham, Oxfordshire OX29 4LF

We are combining the Annual General Meeting with our usual Sunday ride, though you are welcome to make your own way to the venue, where refreshments will be served from 10:30am and where there is ample parking space. For riders, we will leave from Broad Street at 9:30am. As usual, you can choose to ride home after the meeting, or join us for lunch at a local pub.

If you wish to propose any motions for discussion, you should email our secretary with the details by Saturday 29th October: secretary@oxfordcycling.uk. These details should include your membership number and the name and membership number of a seconder.

Existing members: please remember to bring your Cycling UK membership card or your membership number to the meeting (which entitles you to vote). Our Committee would welcome nominations for new members to help lead rides and organise events. Although Committee members do keep in touch via email and phone, there are usually only 3 formal meetings during the year, so please don’t be put off by the thought that membership of the Committee is a time-consuming commitment.

Ride report

We once again (thanks to David Green’s cricketing contacts) enjoyed the hospitality of Eynsham Cricket Clubhouse, with real coffee by barista brother Richard Green, served with a variety of biscuits and homemade cakes. Attendance was up 40% from last year (21) with 3 apologies from regular members and we welcomed 2 new members to our Committee: Sue Altman as Secretary and Anthony Cohen member without portfolio to provide additional help planning and leading. We lose Stephen Lee who has served CTC and Cycling UK for many years in various roles, including club Chairman and Secretary. We wish him well and many more years of happy cycling and camping.
