VCM's Incentive Scheme

While VC Meudon remains a traditional cycle racing club and not a sponsored team, our ongoing sponsorship deals mean that as well as promoting numerous races each season we can offer some help to younger riders and those representing the club at a higher level.

In 2012 the young rider scheme continues with free membership for anyone under the age of 23. We will also reward youths and juniors with £1 per BC licence point up to £150 each for the year (the bonus pool for this will be limited to £1000 in total). Any u23 upgrading a category during the season will get the cost of a jersey refunded.

There are also bonuses for riders showing promise or already representing the club at a high level. Anyone upgrading to a second cat licence will get a free pair of shorts or jersey while anyone holding or upgrading to a 1st cat or Elite licence will get a free jersey and shorts. We may also give ad hoc support via kit items to younger or promising riders where appropriate.

For 2012 any licence points gained during the season will be deducted from 2013 club subs at £1 per point until there are no subs to pay.

To find out more about the points, categories and age groups, go to the links page for the British Cycling Website. You'll also find links there to sources of information on local racing. Alternatively get in touch and we can talk you through things. These incentives are available to local riders only (from the South, Central, and South East Divisions).
