AGM – Revised Plans

The Great British weather looks like it will do its best to spoil our AGM on Sunday. To avoid any potential confusion and disappointment, we are taking the decision to cancel the bike ride and picnic.

The venue for the AGM will be The Hatchet Inn, 12 Market Place, Newbury, RG14 5BD. We are gathering for lunch at 12pm to beat the Fathers’ Day rush and hope to have our AGM at 1pm. If anyone would like to join us then they will be most welcome.

Help us put more bums on saddles

Next Sunday, Spokes will hold its annual general meeting (AGM) where our members will elect people to the various committee posts and decide what our priorities should be for the coming year. Committee posts include:

  • Chair
  • Vice Chair
  • Secretary
  • Treasurer
  • Web Editor
  • Publicity Officer
  • Training Officer
  • Cycle Count Organiser
  • Events Organiser
  • Highways Officer
  • General Campaigners

Any member of Spokes can stand for election to the committee. None of the jobs are particularly onerous – just a couple of hours per month is typical. In most cases you don’t need any previous experience, since there are plenty of old hands around to offer advice and support and we always try to have fun whatever we do.

If you would like to find out more about any of the committee positions, then please feel free to contact us or just come along on the day. We would love to hear from you and hope that you will want to help us achieve our aim of putting more bums on saddles!
