3 O'Clock on the Conduit road. Then comes
the 1oO-.nile road race for Wednesday be-
tween the Arlington Wheeimen and the
Century Club. Following this will be the
election of officers for the local division OF
the league. Friday evening.

of the weather is correct; this VIII mean
good turnout of cyclists The days of
good riding weather limited. and as
winter approaches the time is shortened
considerably. Another thing that will be of
interest TO riders IS the fact that the full
moon is scheduled for Tuesday night. This
will mean that all of next week will be
good for evening riding, provided the
weather is favorable.

change from summer riding 10 fall riding
and the approach of winter invariably
bring a stagnation in club life. 1t is too
early to inauguTate a winter program, yet
it is too early to stop road riding, and be-
tween the two the interest in club work
seems to suffer However. it is period
which most of the club members anticipate
and generally are prepared for. AS soon
as cold weather begins the plans and
prospects for next season viii be discussed
and matters arranged seTeral months
ahead of time
