Want to get involved in the Bike Club? Come along to our AGM, followed by pizza and drinks! There are heaps of ways you can help other people love bikes as much as we do.
Day: Tuesday 23 March
Time: 5pm – 6pm, followed by pizza and drinks
Where: Marsh Room, on level 1 of the Roundhouse (access via the stairs inside the Roundhouse)
What happens at our AGM? We elect new organisers for the year, and talk about ideas people have for exciting new bike projects. Here’s our formal agenda:
1. Confirm minutes of 2009 AGM
2. Report presented by trustees
3. Financial report presented
4. Changes to constitution/organising structure proposed/adopted
5. Election of 2010 organisers
6. Discussion of priorities for this year
7. Pizza and drinks!
I’ve been thinking about how we could structure our organising for 2010, and I’d like to propose the following six roles:
- Advocacy
- Arc Delegate & Secretary
- Bike loans
- Finances & Shop (“Treasurer”)
- Events & Publicity
- Workshops & Tutorials (“President”)
Have a think about whether you might like to help organise the bike club this year. It’s fun, rewarding, and you get to meet heaps of keen cyclists at UNSW, while helping the club that helps you. If you have any questions, send us an email.

Ever been in a situation where you were unsure where you should be on the road, what was the best way to take the corner or just had a few wobbles as you rode along? This series of cycling courses may be what you need to make your life that little bit easier and to give you the confidence to get out on your bike more often.
We are offering a series of free cycling courses to staff and students of UNSW. These courses will be run by a Austcycle certified cycling teacher and will prepare you for riding on Sydney’s roads. We will be meeting at Centennial Park and I would be happy to arrange to ride with people to get there from UNSW or the surrounding suburbs if needed.
Dates: Thursday 11th March, 18th March & 25th March 2010
Time: 4pm-6pm (try to arrive by 3.45 if possible)
