Our cycling year is quickly approaching the end! 

It is time to start thinking of our advocacy donations.    

At this time your Leadership Committee is looking for suggestions.  

We will continue making these announcements through our Facebook Page and our Website.  All 2018 comments and suggestions should Reply to this post in this Forum (2018 Donation Suggestions).  This is so all can view your responses.

Please clearly state the group/ organization and the reason for your suggestion.

Attention new members: 

If you want to view future events not yet listed on the HOME page, check out the "CTC Ride Calendar," an option under the "Rides Info" menu.

Introduce yourself to a ride leader when you ride with us and mention you are a new member.   Check out the CTC Facebook page and ask to join if you'd like.

At this time of the year the riding season is winding down, but there are weekday evening groups that ride well into September, and the Sunday rides continue to the end of October!

I hope to see you soon!

Hello Fellow Club Members,

Years ago, before social media, and before email (mostly), the club shared news via "Crank Mail," a periodical. Several editions were snail-mailed per year. In the CTC section of an edition, members that had joined the club since the previous edition were usually listed.

Your Leadership Council thought this was a nice idea and decided to try it out. The intent is to post new members on a monthly basis. Below are the new members for the first four months of 2018.

New members -- Welcome!

As part of the package of donations CTC members approved in 2017, $250 were donated to the Kirtland Library for the use of their conference rooms.  They wrote back to thank us!
