Fwd: Conference Road Meeting Minutes

[Matt Jones]

Not much to vote on but please let Andrew and I know your thoughts. 

1. Preregistration - This will go into effect this fall as a trial to see how it goes. Should we use it for road season?

2. Easter weekend races to continue? - Another weekend wiped off schedule

3. RR/Crit mandatory? - Remember this could wipe another weekend off the schedule if voted yes

4. Mens E created? - I think this is an Andrew and Matt decision but I would like to hear feedback if there are D riders that would encourage the creation of this field.

5. Juniors/HS - More of an idea but would you want them racing with collegiate fields or separate race fields?

6. D1/D2 racing separate? - Need to hear more feed back from D2 fields. This would require more races during day making for longer days and smaller fields if done.

Remember there is only 1 vote per team so please only have Presidents/coaches submit votes (check with your team before submitting votes). I look forward to reading your thoughts on topics as well. thanks.

One clarification on #3 below: this would be different from the current situation with gravity events for the mountain bike season. Gravity events are recommended and are a criteria when evaluating the proposals but not mandatory. A proposal without gravity events could get a weekend, but generally only one that is left open by clubs that will offer a gravity event. My general philosophy is that some racing - even if not all the events you'd hope for - is better than none and so I'd suggest people consider having both a road race and criterium recommended rather than mandatory.
