Club Meetings at Topa Topa Brewery (open to the public) Approximately 5 times a year from spring to fall the club has a meeting open to the public. It normally starts at 6:15pm with about a half hour of free time to talk to fellow members. It's at Topa Topa so, of course, beer and wine are available. Following the free time a speaker presents information on a topic that is related to bicycling activities. Holiday Dinner Party In early December the club is ready for some alternative festivities. Members can register for themselves and are welcome to bring a guest. It's an evening event with full dinner provided and drinks available for purchase. Generally, there is a recap of all the club happenings throughout the year. For example, successful Year Rounder riders are presented as well as grant fundings as well as past Board Members are recognized and future Board Members are introduced. |
