Although the discussion about mountain bike support on this list has been

interesting and is probably useful, the mechanism for changing the OBRA

rules is:



"Modification of these rules may be made by vote of the club

representatives, generally at an annual meeting. Proposed rule changes shall

be presented to OBRA in written form to be voted on by the club

representatives. "



In other words, opinions stated on this list will remain just opinions and

will not be changed into rules unless someone presents a rule change

proposal. The annual meeting is coming up on 2/11. Absent a special vote,

if someone does not present a proposed rule change at that meeting the OBRA

rules will stay the same. If someone does present a proposed rule change it

will be debated at the meeting and either excepted or rejected.



In addition to rule changes we will be electing 2 board members, presenting

financial information about last year and planning programs for this coming

year. If you have opinions about OBRA programs, rules, etc. it is important

that you are represented at this meeting.
