Hello cycling fans!

As a new Touring Chair at the Oakville Cycling Club, I am contacting
you to get ideas and help to run this year's TOURS and TRAINING RIDES.
Besides our club having races, time trials and attending other
organization's races, we need to have a central/core activity that we
can find solitude in, and that is what I hope to organize with your
help. Please take a few minutes to give me some ideas what would be
good to do. To make the process as painless as possible, please reply
to the following questions now, or by Sunday night, February 6, 2005.
