Welcome to VicBUGChat, an informal discussion newsgroup for Bicycle Users Groups in Victoria, Australia.

This non affiliated newsgroup has been formed for individuals and groups involved with BUG's to have a friendly chat, exchange ideas and network.

When you join this group - please feel free to send the list a introduction about yourself and the Bicycle User Group you represent. Also please use this list to exchange BUG information, rides, events, requests for information and support. And don't forget - please feel free to tell anyone who may be interested in joining this newsgroup.

Members of VicBUGChat are requested to keep any on-list discussions respectful and non-judgemental. At present the newsgroup is moderated, this is solely to keep spam and viruses off the list. Please respect other people opinions, even if you do not necessarily agree with them.
