easy they don't have any cash currentlyI am very skeptical of where the MTB money will go.
agree'd and casual day race license fee's are a total ripoff, auscycling will do less, the state's appear to be running cycling, cycling vic/nsw--CA has as much money as mtbaFor myself and the club I am president of, MTBA doesn't do a whole lot for us in Tassie other than insurance for events, a platform to use for race entries and offer the odd 0 level skills instructor course but we are not asking for much more either. I'd be interested to hear if AusCycling will offer any more than that. The cost of a license is a big stumbling block for people just getting into racing and the free trial system works quite well. If the prices go up at least $10 to $20 I can see a lot of people who would just want to do the odd small club event not bother at all.
It's not all about national and international racing, the majority of entrants would be club level racers.
where do you want to run it - I'm in, ill do timing & run the thing....Moorey's backyard?(I do want a 24 enduro back in Vic though).
My loop around the block is about 2km. I barely make it round in 24hwhere do you want to run it - I'm in, ill do timing & run the thing....Moorey's backyard?
easily solved, ill havea 16” wheel category, i whiskey shot after each lap..people will be crawling homeMy loop around the block is about 2km. I barely make it round in 24h
The diagram shows a corporate structure. Both road and bmx have national and state based clubs, each with boards of management and a corporate structure. Within each state there are the community based affiliate clubs.I don't get the representation of the outgoing structure, all MTBA members must nominate a local club so why aren't any clubs shown? There is so much that is confusion on that image.
Well, shit. I wasn't too concerned about my race licence, but I'm also paying for two under 11. $50 each now, $75 after.here are the ne proposed prices cycling one prices
win for me, 250 for full mtba/cd/road membership..i can now rock up to a road race & shit stir some roadies who take themselves too seriously...maybe i’ll start a track career also
We did the sums, I'd get less than half of what I'd actually need to survive.Can't be any less productive than what MTBA are and have been, they do zero for mountain biking in Australia. I have an MTBA license to save on day license fee's and in the back of my mind I know I have some coverage if I have a crash.
Since my early days riding bikes, I've only ever considered MTBA an insurance company. They give you the same benefits as a car insurance company for your car, your house insurance etc etc. In summary, they take your money and give you FUCK ALL.
heard of active kids voucher?I'm also paying for two under 11. $50 each now, $75 after.
2 years ago mine were $50, they turned 13 and jumped to $105 + club.Well, shit. I wasn't too concerned about my race licence, but I'm also paying for two under 11. $50 each now, $75 after.
The $50 Sports Voucher here in SA is accepted by CA, but not by MTBA (That's the last info I had, so may have changed)heard of active kids voucher?
Yes, I agree but why not show the community based affiliate clubs that reside under MTBA, they aren't any different to the equivalent BMXA or CA local club? Also surely that diagram would've been a prime opportunity to show how the new structure would simplfy things for those who are currently members of multiple clubs.The diagram shows a corporate structure. Both road and bmx have national and state based clubs, each with boards of management and a corporate structure. Within each state there are the community based affiliate clubs.
In mountain bikes...we don't have that. It's just the MTBA at a national level and then all the community based affiliate clubs.
Actually as they are our peak representative body that's exactly what I expect, I've just come accept that they won't.However, we would never (as a club) expect the MTBA to advocate on our behalf at a local or even state level for trail access, MTB development , promotion etc or support us financially if things went awry. That's all on us...
Thankfully our club fees are subsidised by the local Sporting Club.2 years ago mine were $50, they turned 13 and jumped to $105 + club.
Yeah, Nah, training is overrated . I'm hoping the bloke who won Melrose Solo 18hr still has some fatigue in his legs. Did you see there's a Rego dinner the night before?Back after a 5 year break for the Coomie in a few weeks, done it 11, 12 & 13 but I heard there's a few faster locals these days maybe I should do some training...
While the club is based in NSW, my family is not, and there's nothing on offer in Vic outside of school sport.heard of active kids voucher?
BJ might have recovered by then... but if he's only running at 95%... you never know.Yeah, Nah, training is overrated . I'm hoping the bloke who won Melrose Solo 18hr still has some fatigue in his legs. Did you see there's a Rego dinner the night before?
haha yeah, forgot people live in other statesWhile the club is based in NSW, my family is not, and there's nothing on offer in Vic outside of school sport.
