Thanks to all who answered my email.
I'll answer individually to each email I received but in the meantime in
order not to ollute this lits, I've created a Yahoo!Group to discuss the
discussion of a Wilsonville-area bike club.

You can find it at http://sports.groups.yahoo.com/group/wv-velo/

Hi,

I was trying to find a team/group to do group ride son the week-end and a
little racing (I've done a couple of PIR Monday this year) but it seems most
the teams I've found are riding from Hillsboro.

Living in Wilsonville, I do not really see the need to drive for 45-60
minutes on Saturday morning before a ride.

Therefore I'm thinking about creating a group based in Wilsonville that
would "serve" Canby, Tualatin, Lake Oswego, ... After all, there is a lot of
flat roads without a lot of traffic south of the Willamette and some hills
around Wilsonville/Newberg that make for good training grounds.

My goal is to check the interest over the winter, get a core group going
and have rides by early spring 08.

I would also like to get some contact and information about the legal aspect
of creating such a group. Liability is unfortunately a too big risk to
ignore.

Please contact me at lrochette@gmail.com if you're interested or can be of
any help.

Thanks
