Out of interest, what do you think is the best way to get relevant info to those people? [in this instance - or more generally!]
Assuming we are talking about local clubs, not those with a widely scattered membership like Manchester Wheelers 40 years ago. I would say it is up to the secretary how they approach this. It would not be sensible to expect them to be able (or the club to afford) to make paper copies of the reports to give to members, but it might be practical for the secretary or committee to decide that there are topics/proposals that need to be publicised. These topics could be circulated as an excerpt from the CTT paperwork. Such topics are not likely to crop up every year.
So you're suggesting that it would often be practical to distribute printouts by hand? (due to the small number of email-phobes) Yup, could work. It's not important, just an interesting side discussion!
I think the CTT has the right approach - "we send information to the member club and it is up to them what they do with it".
Well I'm not so sure; it does seem reasonable, but look how widely the system has failed this year. (I'm sure that if riders are photographed without lids at club events, CTT will not view it as a
purely local matter! ) Perhaps because I work in QC and H&S, I'd say a belt-n-braces approach would be better; why not email all CTT registered members
as well?
Each email should include a suggestion, like: "Please make sure everyone you know involved in the sport is aware of these."
This would probably slash the overlooked by an enormous factor, for sod-all extra work.
