January 2, 2012

The KCA Board of Directors has approved revisions to the KCA Bylaws.  The revised version may be viewed here.  The revisions to the Bylaws primarily relate to incorporating into KCA racing clubs that have an address of record in a Missouri county bordering Kansas and USAC licensed individuals who reside in a Missouri county bordering Kansas.  This is in keeping with the USAC concept of racing associations being defined by racing communities rather than by state lines.  This change allows these clubs and individuals to actively participate in the governance of the USAC local association (KCA) that provides their race support.  The Bylaws were further revised to increase the number of Board members from five to between five and nine, define additional officer positions on the Board and allow an unattached racer to serve on the Board.  Questions regarding the Bylaws should be directed to Sherri Hahn at shahnsj@aol.com.

The new KCA finish line camera was tested last weekend at the Wichita Bicycle X-Change Crits. The test was a success. The KCA will continue to fine tune the system but it is available for future races. The camera must be operated by a trained KCA official. Many thanks to Matt Kassawara who researched and implemented the new system. Promoters, please contact Sherri Hahn with any questions re using the camera at your race. shahnsj@aol.com

Message from Jim Whittaker, Promoter of Spring Fling Crit Series:

Everything went well today at Clinton lake. There will be low traffic there and the cabins aren’t rented for this weekend. They have one rental for all of March.

In the past I’ve found that motels were booked in the spring for races. Cyclists racing the Saturday fling and Sunday dam series should rent these cabins.

They are new, they sleep 6 and have a kitchen. And it’s on a race course and close to the Perry series. http://www.kdwp.state.ks.us/State-Parks/Locations/Clinton/Cabins

If they build 5 more for 2012 renting them to cyclists will really be helpful.

Spread the word please, especially to our Wichita friends.
