Subject: OBRA Subscriptions to Oregon Cycling





OBRA has provided an annual subscritpion to Oregon Cycling News to it's

paying members in the past. I just received notice fron OCN that they are

increasing their prices, effectively now. While $1 increase is not a =

whole

lot, it is more then we have budgeted for - (we break even on memberships,

no profit added)

so the question is



1. Do we bite the bullet and pay the increase and still provide the =

service

2. Do we discontinue offering the subscription and let members pick up

their free copy of the paper when they frequent their local shops

3. Do we try and find another source that would provide a newsletter at a

cheaper price ( I have already put out feelers about this,have not had any

call returned yet)





4. Something else



Please let us all know if you find this paper invaluable and what your

choice of the above may be

IMHO, I believe we can accomplish the same via a web site verses a printed

newsletter such as OCN. In fact, we could get OBRA members to be =

contributing

writers, save the money going to OCN and pay for other programs such as an

online newsletter etc.

It's just my opinion, but I would cancel the subscription.



You know, a place to vote at the obra web site would be

really cool.
