As part of a review of all Advisory Groups, the Board of WestCycle has developed a new Terms of Reference for each Advisory Group. Implicit in the ToR is the need for the board to be more actively engaged in the advisory group. With the retirement of long term board member Mike Rendell, the new Road Recreation elected member is Shannon Arnott.

It has been determined that it is appropriate to seek expressions of interest from bike riding groups for membership of the Road Recreation Advisory group.

The criteria for selection as a member of the Advisory Group is as follows.

• The nominee will be approved by their organisation to be a member of the Advisory Group.
• Such an organisation will be an Incorporate Association or formalised riding group.
• The Advisory Group provides input and guidance for the board for all road and recreational riding activities. Accordingly, nominees are expected to represent all of road and recreation riding, and not solely their organisation’s view.
• The nominee agrees to comply with the Terms of Reference and Code of Conduct.
• The nominee agrees to attend a minimum of 4 meetings per year.
• The scope of the Road Recreation Advisory Group does not include matters of competition, which is the purview of AusCycling. However, as the Peak Body for Cycling in WA, WestCycle has a responsibility to address all matters pertaining to cycling, especially in respect of participation, government advocacy and infrastructure. Matters of interest may be referred to AusCycling for their consideration.
• The intent of the Advisory Group is to address the following matters in the short term:
  
  • Club affiliation to WestCycle
  • Recreational riding routes
  • Club development, what can be done to support AusCycling’s initiatives
  • Engaging with the social riding community
  • Ride leader program implementation
  • Other matters as identified by the Advisory Group.

EOI’s should be made on the following form, completed by the cycling organisation .
