LSCC Website

The website is in the process of being updated with this terms events which are been organised for you as we speak. If you would like to see an event take place this semester please let us know, we would welcome feedback from the 1st semester. The open meeting has given us some more ideas so you will see some day trips to Cannock and Derbyshire after you have all finished you exams.

Kit has Arrived

The kit everyone ordered last semester (HighFive, Race kit, and Social Kit) has all arrived. The amount of kit that has been delivered is obscene, so we cannot bring it to a seminar, you will have to go to the kit sec’s house to pick the clothing up (This will be emailed to you).

HighFive have kindly sponsored the club, everyone was due to receive a bottle packed with HighFive products, some people have not picked theirs up, so again you can pick yours up with the kit.

Campus Criterium

The club is promoting the campus criterium on Saturday 26th May. This is a fantastic opportunity to see racing on closed roads around the university campus. Please check out www.lsu-cycling.co.uk/criterium for further details and follow the race on facebook at http://www.facebook.com/pages/Loughborough-University-Campus-Criterium/284081724968039. This year there is also going to be a BUCS race… entry details are on the event website.

Club Track Bikes

The club track bikes were in a state of disrepair as they have not been used for at least 5 years and are about 15 years old! LSCC have moved into the 21st centenary, we have just purchased two brand new Terry Dolan track bikes. These bikes are for all LSCC members to use, please get in touch with Dave Crosbie if you would like to book one out.

Cycling Squad

In October you may have heard about a cycling performance squad, this is something that we have started. A team has been selected and have been training hard over the winter months; the riders selected are Alex Burrage, Sandy King, Mike Thelwell, Dave Nichols and Ben Wimpory. The idea of the team is try increase the performance of the club to ensure that we represent Loughborough at a similar level to other clubs at Loughborough. This means we are aiming to win the BUCS cycling championship this year, hopefully with thease guys on board we should do this. More details will be online soon.

There is loads more events to come, please keep checking the clubs website
