At the recent AGM held on the 11 December 2016 the members of the GSCC elected a new committee and with a new president for the next 12 months. The club would like to congratulate Vincent Haveaux on his election as president and his fellow committee members.
In the last three years under the guidance and dedication from Kane Airey the club membership has grown from 120 to 180 members with an average attendance of 40 riders per race for the 2016 season. In addition to the new pergola and solar power to the amenities at the Paraparap club rooms the racing highlights for the year was 89 riders for the new rider day, 120 riders for the Geelong open and 85 riders for the Age group championships. With regular numbers like this each week it strengthens the case for the club to purchase an electronic timing system to ensure accuracy of results and rider race day administration
We look forward to Vincent and committee to carrying on the good work done in recent times and make it attractive for riders to join in and participate in competitive but welcoming cycling.
