Categories of Membership
There are various categories of membership you may choose from when becoming a member of Eastern Suburbs Cycling Club.
All categories entitle you to insurance cover, details of which can be found in the downloadable ESCC Membership Form. You will also need to fill in the Cycling Australia Membership form which can also downloaded.
You may elect to join ESCC under the 'General Membership' category which entitles you to a domestic racing license, allowing you to enter all club and open events for the calendar year. You can view the current 2009 Race Calendar at the Cycling NSW website.
Alternatively, if you have no wish to race but do enjoy the club training rides that are registered with Cycling NSW, you can join under the 'Recreational' category which is a non-competitive membership. You are permitted to enter club training rides only (for open events you will need to upgrade to a full racing license).
A non-competitive membership is the very least you will require to participate in ESCC training rides so that you have insurance cover when out on the road.
Renewal of any existing membership should be processed before 31st December 2009 in order for cover to continue from 1st January 2010. Memberships run through to 31st December 2010.
