Ride Leader Incentive Program

The  purpose is to encourage club members to ride more frequently and to  share their riding experiences with others.  The idea is to provide  rewards to those who take the time and energy to map out and lead rides  for the enjoyment of other members & guest.

Program Outline

For  each ride led, the ride leader will receive one (1) credit, co-ride  leader/sweep rider will receive a half (½) credit. Two (½) credits equal  one (1) whole credit. Once accumulated, the credits can be redeemed for the following rewards. 

Five- qualifying  rides led equals (5) credits and entitle that person to a Road ID bracelet.
(Two Road ID bracelet styles are available with the $22 Road ID gift certificate you receive)

Ten- qualifying rides led equals (10) credits and entitle that person to a $35 gift certificate at Keswick Cycle.

Twenty- qualifying  rides led equals (20) credits and entitle that person to a BBCC jersey, a BBCC ride leaders Jersey or BBCC shorts.

There  is no overlap of credits, each reward is separate.  Once you redeem your points you start over from zero.  Any ride leader can receive all rewards but must  accumulate a total of thirty five (35) points to do so.

Credits  carry over from year to year as long as membership is retained. (If  membership lapse is greater than 30 days, credits are forfeited). If  membership is re-established after a 30 day lapse, credits are not  re-awarded and accumulation starts at zero (0).
