The magazine has asked for photographs of club members.
We will be undertaking a photo shoot at Hetton this Saturday, so please turn out in force in club colours.
Banners and flags will also be on display.
Make sure you get your mums and dads to scrub up clean as the camera lens will also be directed at them !

CCN Event This Saturday 13th March - Note Time
Submitted by hodgsot on 8 March 2010 - 6:33pm.The second event will be held this Saturday, with the youngest riders starting at 9.45am, so you need to be there a little earlier this week!
As we had a few bumps with the youngest groups last week, I'm bringing back the "riding helpers" idea to work with the groups to improve safety.
I would also like to say that 50% of the cash raised from these events will go directly to the club in recognition of the help that members give in support every year. I am asking CCN's members (where not already Hetton members) to also grant aid the new race team.
CCN Event This Saturday - PLEASE NOTE
Submitted by hodgsot on 4 March 2010 - 9:52pm.Would members and riders of all ages wishing to ride the CCN event at Hetton on Saturday note that due to the cancellation of the Neil White Memorial Race this Sunday, we may well get more riders than normal as there isn't a race in the area.
All riders will be welcome, but I'm asking everyone to note that we have been requested to vacate the venue by 12 noon if possible to make way for a running race on the track. I anticipate that the main problem will be as riders get changed and socialise after our event and runners looking to get ready and warm up arrive.
CCN Training Events - Saturday March 6th & 13th
Submitted by hodgsot on 25 February 2010 - 9:02pm.Following our Hetton members-only training event, CCN will support two training events for all-comers. See below for a downloadable flyer.
These two events are aimed at any rider who is looking to build up race fitness, or just try out a race-type event.
Format of the events is an Australian Pursuit, with separate events for the very young, a bit less young, then older teenagers getting a head start on the adults.
CCN & Hetton Hawks Members Road Training Event - Saturday Feb 27th
Submitted by hodgsot on 25 February 2010 - 8:41pm.This Saturday, Hetton Hawks club members and parents are able to come along and do a CCN-type training event. As last year, the format will be a race-type, but with no formal prizes and completely random calling of sprints and the infamous "devil" (which means don't be last over the line!) We will also do some timed laps if time allows.
