Jaco Steyn Posted February 9, 2010 Posted February 9, 2010 I received a SMS today from Cycle Lab Supercycling Club informing me that from now on we need to collect our Ride Magazine (part of the club benefits/membership fees) at the club offices. I am 100km away from the club, so it will be daft to ride to Fourways just to collect a ?R35 magazine! If I do not take the magazine, will I get a discount of my club membership fees? I think this just sucks.
mercurystorm Posted February 9, 2010 Posted February 9, 2010 Yeh got the same SMS, lucky for me i drive past the cyclelab fourways office everyday to get to my office, so not a huge issue for me.. They just sent an email newsletter aswell, now i have no problem fetching it, but when!?! Maybe for people like yourself steynja, they should still post, it would still cutdown from there R56000 postage bill per month
Jaco Steyn Posted February 9, 2010 Author Posted February 9, 2010 They just sent an email newsletter aswell I did not get this newsletter, but then again, I never get e-mail newsletters from them! I gues my work's e-mail mail marshall just deletes them. Maybe I should contact Cari-Ann and ask that newsletters are sent to my home e-mail address.
Pilks Posted February 9, 2010 Posted February 9, 2010 Well i dont mind. The subs have stayed the same for three years now so i guess something had to give.
mercurystorm Posted February 9, 2010 Posted February 9, 2010 Incase you never received news letter Dear francis@.......... I am sure that you have enjoyed the benefit of your monthly Ride Magazine as a Cycle Lab Supercycling Club Member. This is one of many club member benefits, and also one that we have truly appreciated from the management of Ride Magazine. As the club has expanded over the years, so has the cost to produce and post these magazines to you. Together the Club and Ride Magazine will continue to provide this monthly benefit to you, however they will be delivered to your closest club for you to collect each month. This therefore waiving the postal cost of R56 000 a month. Collection points are as follows: Club Johannesburg - Cycle Lab - Design Quarter, Nicol Grove, Fourways Club Pretoria - Cycle Lab - Centurion Gate Centre, Centurion Club Durban - Cycle Lab - 68 Kensington Drive, Durban North (also distribution to Cycle Lab Hillcrest) Club Cape Town - Cycle Lab - Westlake Lifestyle Centre, Westlake Drive, Westlake (also distribution to Cycle Lab Tyger Manor and Cycle Lab Northgate Island) Club Port Elizabeth - Kevin Dorfling to confirm (coffee shop in the area) Club Nelspruit - Anton's Cycle Worx, 22 Rapid Street, Riverside Industrial Park Club Heidelberg - Wiesenhof Coffee Shop, Heidelberg
