This year's club dinner will be held on Friday 29th November 2013 at the Bear Hotel in Cowbridge.  Tickets will be priced at £30 and the Guest of Honour will be Bill Owen, President of Welsh Cycling.

Please put the date in your diary - I will start selling tickets with about a month to go.

Dropped through the door.
Was tempted to pinch one of those rather nice apples but resisted.

Help yourself!  The whole village is after them - I think another few days to ripen completely....

It will be only one ticket as usual and this year it will be without crutches ! I hope.

Photography Competition. I understand we are reviving this competition. There is a trophy. Does anyone know the rules ? I think there were three categories; Sporting, Social and Humour ? And I think there was an independant judge. The entries were also exhibited at the dinner so the judging and awards must have been done before the dinner ?

I think there have been a few opportunities this year for some good ones, not least the Brompton Race Kit and the French Party on the TdF eve.

There is a final opportunity for the Social Entries at the Roadmans Night out tomorrow - so bring your cameras (or smart-arse phones) everyone.

Umm 4 places? Maybe my mistake I thought tickets were £30 each? It's only Rob and I (no sniggering), wives and other halfs aren't able to attend.

I have had a great response in terms of numbers for the club dinner, with over 40 people attending, the most for a number of years!  If you have yet to tell me you are attending, or want to find out a little more, please get in touch..

Dress code - Mmm...  I'd say smart casual. If we were a night club I'd say no T- Shirts, Jeans or Trainers ( except for Sean Yates!)
Title: Re: Club Dinner 2013 - A date for your diary
Post by: Rob Jones on November 06, 2013, 04:26:24 PM
Smart jeans are generally allowed in night clubs these days and look great with a shirt and shoes... ;D

Hi Steven,

Four more for the dinner - myself & Tony Mansell plus wives. Will give Mary the money next Friday and will get the menu choices by tomorrow ... I'm assuming none of this is too late for inclusion.

Thanks,

Terry

Can I ask you to think about a raffle prize for next Friday's dinner.  It can be a nice bottle of wine, something cycling related or even a booby prize!  Just bring it with you on the night.

The famous 'red shorts' are back with me from last year and will, of course be the star prize !

Thanks to all for a very pleasant evening, I hope it offered some motivation for more riders to take part in events in 2014. First off is the 50 mile reliability event in the spring with the Club 10 mile TT starting in May. Advise and information on different events is always available on this web site or at the Cub on a Friday night. Go on av a go.
