Tue, 02/02/2010 - 12:34am Board Meeting Schedule for 2010 Because of the adoption of new bylaws last summer, ACA now conducts all club business at monthly board meetings.
Before the change, the board would conduct business at the monthly membership meetings on the first Monday of the month. In an effort to make the monthly meetings more fun, the new bylaws call for separate business meetings.
The board meetings are open to our members and to the public.
Our next meeting is at 6:30 p.m. Tuesday, Feb. 23, at BikeTexas, 1902 E. 6th St., Austin. Although our board meetings are usually the last Wednesday of the month, the February meeting has been moved to Tuesday so as not to conflict with the city's Nueces Street Bike Boulevard meeting on Feb. 24. The meetings for the rest of the year are all at 6:30 p.m. Wednesday at BikeTexas. The dates are March 31, April 28, May 26, June 30, July 28, Aug. 25, Sept. 29, Oct. 27 and Dec. 1. The board also plans on having two budget planning meetings on Sept. 15 and Oct. 13.

If you've ever dreamed about doing a self-contained bike camping tour, this is your chance to learn more about how to do it, and to join a tour for an overnight campout.

Former ACA presidents Steve Coyle and Scott Korcz will talk about the bike tour at the April meeting on April 6. They are planning an S24O (sub 24 hour overnight) tour to a local campground. In preparation for this tour, Steve and Scott will present hands-on information about the gear necessary to pack everything you need on your bike in order to camp overnight. Their presentation will cover panniers, trailers, racks, camping equipment, clothes, and food that can be used on the S24O they are planning. They will also discuss the bike route to the local campground for the overnight campout and the date for the tour.

Steve and Scott encourage folks to bring their own bike touring and camping gear to the presentation for discussion.
