I admit to not paying too much attention during the last vote, are there any threads outlining views of members who are for converting to a charity? Particularly with respect to the points made on the "Save the CTC" website - such as only 25% of membership fees for membership benefits?

I'm not at all comfortable with the idea that rather than joining a club of like-minded folk I would mainly be donating to a campaigning organisation. I would almost certainly leave the CTC if this is the case. Have I misunderstood anything?

Indeed, I searched their whole website for "studded" and got "not found". Same on Wiggle. So do SJSC and Wiggle not sell these, or do I need another clue to be able to recognise a "studded tyre"?

Try these on Wiggle "Schwalbe Marathon Winter Performance Rigid Road Tyre" - http://www.wiggle.co.uk/schwalbe-marathon-winter-performance-rigid-road-tyre/ - Not a mention of stud anywhere but one use pf "spike"
