Bolsover & District Cycling Club

Hello everyone,

I've looked into affiliation to the CTT and it is £20 per year. BUT there is a further £50 on top of that if you have commercial sponsors. So we would have to:

A - Not bother affiliating (which means nobody would be able to ride an open time trial).

B- Cough up £70

C- Pay £20 but not wear B&DCC jerseys while racing.

D- Have a new jersey made without the sponsors names.

CTT will NOT allow you to ride with sponsors names on your jersey unless you have registered as a sponsored club.

Further options:

• Ask (one of) the sponsors if they would be willijg to stump up
• Get some simple logos printed onto something that could be worn over/pinned to none logo stuff
• Cover up the sponsors when riding
• Get Gillets without the sponsors on
• Register as a sponsored club (but not sure what this means)......
  

Good work detective Vern !

my intial opinion would be to leave affiliation for this year then , members can still compete in the club time trials such as the Cuckney series run by Kiveton Park

if we get more than a couple of riders members wanting  to dip into entering the "open" events , then we should reconsider at that point

if it aint broke , dont fix it

how much is personal membership into CTT?

blazers revenge again!! strikes me as some people should do more riding and less time thinking........

if you have rwad flying scotsman and the hour by hutch you will know what i mean with regard to overbearing and invasive bureaucracy.....

gilets are a belting idea

The £70.00 is not a huge problem as funds are healthy at the moment. The issue for me is more that the CTT year starts in October, so we'd only get half a year for £70.

I'd agree with affiliating at the start of the CTT year, which would allow some time to see what interest there is in racing TTs before we commit to joining.
