[DVBC] Lead rides, get points, earn a special jersey

[Drew Knox]

 We need more rides on the calendar and more ride leaders. To help motivate
folks to sign up to lead rides, the board has approved a new ride leader
incentive program.

If you've been thinking you would like to lead a ride but are unsure how to,
we have two ways to help you get going. One way is a new Ride Leader
Guideline that will be posted soon on the club website that walks you
through the simple logistics and helps answer situational questions. Another
way is to get mentored from one of our experienced ride leaders who can
guide you in all phases. If you would like assistance, contact me and I will
hook you up with a ride mentor.

If you are already comfortable leading, start earning points by posting
rides. Clarence is collecting May rides now.

Here's how the program works


*To Qualify for a Ride Leader Jersey*



Collect 10 points within this calendar year, then let the Ride Coordinator
know when you think you have qualified. Jerseys will be ordered in September
and distributed at the December banquet.



To qualify, you must be a member of DVBC.



   1. Get one point for leading a ride that is listed in the club
   newsletter and which follows the Ride Leader Guidelines. Turn in your waiver
   sheet for credit. Impromptu rides put on the list serve are not credited.
   2. Get one point for volunteering at any of DVBC's major tours
   (Bonkers, Brandywine, or ToPa).
   3. Get five points for leading a major tour or for filling a social
   chair (newsletter editor, public relations manager, and others to be
   determined).

 Ride Leader jerseys are a great way to show that you are an active club
volunteer.
