Minutes of the previous meeting are to be read at the next meeting. Due to the absence of almost everyone, much of this meeting was comprised of informal discussion.

Two Galway Cycling Campaign members are now qualified cycling instructors after spending the Christmas holidays attending courses in the UK. Oisin O’Nidh, the campaign’s membership secretary did a course in Manchester while campaign chair Shane Foran took a course in London. Both courses develop trainers to deliver the new UK National Standard in cycling instruction.

This is a forum topic to see if there is any interest among Galway Cycling Campaign members to receive cycling tuition. This is just to get feedback on numbers interested.
Two members of the Galway Cycling Campaign have recently done the UK National Standard Cycling Instructor course in Manchester and London in December 2008.
