Dear Team Shell Cyclist,

I am forwarding this note out from Steve Moskowitz.  Steve heads up the Ready 2 Roll training series.  Our team has been participating in this training series for over 15 years.  In the past we have had over 100 riders join every year.  The series is progressive in nature and begins early January 2018 with two beginners ride, followed by 12 weeks of increasing distances and hills to prepare you for successful completion of the MS 150 event in April.  Joining this training series is totally voluntary.  See Steve's note below to take advantage of the early bird discounted fee.

There are other great training series out there such as the Pearland Cycle Club.  I will share more on other training opportunities and local rides as they arise.

Have a great week!

Be Well!

Mark

I am sending this 2nd note to make sure no one misses the opportunity to enroll at the lowest possible cost. The cost goes up to $165 at midnight on Oct 25 so please enroll before then, if you know you plan to participate.

A big THANKS to this group of anchor teams for living up to your reputation! So far, these teams are racing well ahead of all the others in enrollment as well as volunteering as the percent of riders volunteering when they enroll ranges from 25% to 71% on your teams. This is far ahead of all the other teams participating!

Here is the enrollment note that went out last Monday, in case you missed it...

----------
Good afternoon everyone!

Today is Oct 23 which means it's time to roll out the enrollment form for the 14-week Ready2Roll Cycling 2018 Training Series.

We know many of you are already eager to enroll for 2018 and more of you will be equally eager when you read that enrollment is only $155 ($11/ride) from now until midnight on October 25.

I'll keep this note very brief so you can get to the enrollment form ASAP. We streamlined the form this year and it has been tested by many of the captains of teams participating in the training series. On average, it takes each rider just under 4 minutes to enroll, including submitting payment info so the form is very easy to complete.

I won't burden everyone with all the details about the series except to note that the series consists of 2 fully supported beginner rides (smaller, shorter, slower rides for beginners and mentors leading the newbies by example) and 12 fully supported training rides. All rides are on Saturday. The beginner rides are Jan 13/20 and the 12-week series runs from Jan 27 to Apr 21 with a day off on Sat, Feb 24. If you have not experienced a ride with Ready2Roll Cycling before, we know you will be pleased with our very high level of support on and off the road, our focus on safety and courtesy, and the organization and experience we bring to every ride.

Here are a few key enrollment points and tips:

  *   The form is divided into six very short sections:
     *   Enrollment Status: Rider, Ride Marshal, EMS, etc.
     *   Rider Info: Name, address, phone, emergency contact, etc.
     *   Team Status: On a team, want to join a team, or individual rider
     *   Waiver & Safety/Courtesy reminders
     *   Volunteer Signup (See note below)
     *   Rider Profile: 4 demographic questions
  *   The first four sections are required. Any unnecessary questions are hidden based on answers to earlier questions.
  *   The initial list of teams has been compiled from teams that have confirmed that they are participating in the 2018 training series. If your team is not listed on the pull-down team list, please contact your team captain to get in touch with [email-masked]<mailto:[email-masked]> ASAP so I can confirm the team's interest in participating and get them plugged into our team coordination/communication process. If you are a team captain, or training coordinator, you can add your team to the team list by clicking on the "Create a Team" button.
  *   The volunteer section is optional (but highly recommended) for riders on teams and required for individual riders (since they don't have a team liaison coordinating their volunteer duty).
  *   The final section is optional but it takes less that 20 seconds. Please give us these extra seconds if you can to build a good understanding of who our riders are and their cycling background.
  *   After you complete and submit the form, you will have the option to enroll additional rider(s) on the same transaction or go on to the payment screen.

Important Note to Key Teams!
This note is going to riders on our "anchor" teams - Team BP, ConocoPhillips, Phillips 66 and Team Shell. You provide a significant portion of our volunteers so we pre-assigned your team volunteer dates to make it easy for you to volunteer now and take a load off your team leaders. Here are the assignments:

  *   Team BP: 1/27, 3/24, 4/21
  *   ConocoPhillips: 2/10, 3/3, 3/10, 4/7
  *   Phillips 66: 2/10, 3/3, 3/10, 4/7
  *   Team Shell: 2/17, 3/17, 4/14
One key note about the (new for 2018) volunteer signup. This is a new addition to the form we added for all riders this year. It is optional for riders who are on a team but these are the riders we are most hoping will take a moment to offer to help support one ride as you are the bulk, and core of the training series. If about half of you submit with one (or more) dates/duties already selected, it will save all our captains a LOT of work recruiting you to complete other volunteer surveys and/or compiling and communicating all their team volunteers to us 8 days before the team volunteer support date(s).

Please select a volunteer duty on one of the dates assigned to your team to help us ensure we have a strong core group of volunteers each week to help the other volunteers get up to speed more quickly.

Please also note that you can recruit a spouse, adult (18+) family member or friend to cover for you. If you are not the volunteer, there are lines to enter the volunteer and their cell # and email address.

Don't forget that the best enrollment value ("First Wave") lasts until midnight on Oct 24. The fee goes up to $165 at that time and will go up again on Dec 15 and Jan 26 so please act fast and please do feel free to pass this note along to other team riders and/or other cycling friends.

We are looking forward to another outstanding training series in 2018.

We thank you in advance, for your participation,
Steve, Robbie, Marshall and Jan
