A Great Sportive Flyer, help needed

[Alan M]

Huw has kindly created this flyer. If you have ideas and outlets for its distribution let me know by PM

BTW, have you entered or offered to help yet?

Handing them out at the top of Boxhill on weekends would be a good start.

I know you said PM ideas alan but I've posted mine on here to get the ball rolling though hopefully I've been beaten to it.

[Alan M]

Not yet Tony but you're up with the Lark. Thanks.

[Amy]

pm'd you but might as well put it here - keeps it in the public view a bit longer...

Cycles Dauphins would be a good one - saves standing at the top of Box Hill and of course, the other local shops, Pearsons, Corridori, etc. How about Condors? And would you consider Evans (the cycle shop, before Phil says anything...)? Brixton Cycles?

[Dombo]

Ask the cafe at top of Box Hill if you can stick a flyer in their window. Saves handing them out.

[Amy]

Box Hill is a good place to get flyers out though

Hi, the main URL given is wrong. It points to the entry list, and not to the main event page, which is https://www.sientries.co.uk/event.php?event_id=421. There is no obvious way to get from the entry list to the event page.

Although I'd be tempted to push everyone through the ACC site, so we can analyse stats from a greater proportion of interested people (Unfortunately we can't track all the way through to sign-up as SiEvents don't yet offer this, nor pass registrants back to our site).

Also, there's a missing "e" in "Challenge" in the Peru caption.

Personally I'm not a fan of that type of mega blitz Marco, it can very easily start to feel like it's a bit pressuring. To begin I'd stick with bike shops and an email to local clubs Gen Secs / website contacts.

It's not the hardest route I could've made it but it's challenging enough to be a fairly tough ride for "normal" club run type cyclists. I don't think it should be placed as a too open to all as a minimum standard will be required to meet a cut off time.

I think that in the New Year people will look closer anyway as a) they'll start to plan the year and b) the dragon etc will have started to fill up and people will look for an alternative.

The printed versions have the main event entry page URL and the 'e' added

I dropped a load into GBs today in time for the xmas sales (Highly recommended, they managed to get £100 out of me - the more you spend the more you save

Most media outlets are targeted for 1st week of new year. Local reliability trials and sportives prior to the ACC event are obvious targets so if anyone is attending any of these please let us know if you are available to pop some flyers into the hall or under car windscreen wipers at the event car-park etc

Cheers

OK, At the moment there is a small problem with the flyers and Huw needs to do another print run. My problem is I leave UK on 6th so may not be able to get them from him. Who can liaise with Huw over supplies for local bike shops and clubs. I have Redhill CC, High wycombe CC, GB and Cycle Dauphin covered at the moments. Help Please

Cheers

I do a fair amount of training in Richmond Park and can drop a flyer or two off where the LD meet for their Sat club run. Maybe that may bare fruitful.

Good idea Terry. Can you liaise with Huw to collect some. Cheers.
