Team Shell is completely run by volunteers.
Although we all enjoyed a successful
team effort in 2009, it didn’t just fall into place on its own.
Accolades go out to the 2009 planning team that were
integral in Team Shell’s success. All of us have full-time jobs at Shell,
and committed our time and dedication to Team Shell in our “free time” and
many late nights.
If you volunteered to help with the team when you registered on the Team Shell zoomerang site, you’ll soon be receiving an email from either me or another planning committee member. We appreciate your enthusiasm and support, and look forward to working with you to make 2010 a fantastic success for Team Shell. 2010 Leadership Team
Planning Committee The members of the Team Shell Planning Committee for 2010 with their responsibilities are:
The committee meets regularly to develop plans for Team Shell activities – including events, on-bike safety clinics, communications and other matters to support a successful BP MS150 ride for Team Shell members. If you want to serve on the Planning committee please contact us at: Shellcyclingteam.com Web and Yahoo eGroup Sites Thor Hanson is webmaster for the Team Shell website and Pat Phelps is moderator for the Team Shell Yahoo eGroup. Please feel free to contact us if you have questions, comments, corrections etc. for the Team Shell website or Team Shell Yahoo eGroup. Ride Marshals Eric Thiede will once again be the Head Team Shell Race Marshal. Based on our team size, Team Shell needs a minimum of 10 ride marshals to comply with MS safety requirements; there is no maximum and more is better. In 2009 we had 15 Ride Marshals.
Ride Marshals are registered cyclists who act as both Good Will and Safety Ambassadors for the BP MS 150 Recommended Rides and the BP MS 150. Requirements to be a ride marshal include:
If you are a first-time ride marshal, complete the NMSS Ride Marshal Registration Form . Veteran ride marshals should have received a sign-up email from Brian Hatt with a veteran RM link. After completing the Ride Marshal registration form please read and familiarize yourself with the Ride Marshal Manual and the Ride Marshal Code of Conduct. If you register to be a Team Shell Ride Marshal, let Erid Thiede know. If you participate in the CP training series or in an MS Recommended Ride as a Ride Marshall, your fee is waived.
