- arranges meetings, compiles agendas, provides minutes.
- keeps track of who is doing what, and how far through things people are.
- deals with problems and follows the discussions at the national level.
- provides e-mail updates to let people know what is going on.
- points out where and when help is needed.
- acts as a contact point for general enquiries (e-mail and mobile phone).

- oversees moderation on the York e-mail list.
- answers people's questions with care and consideration.
- ensures that the collective remains non-hierarchical but organised.
Next ride
Date: Saturday 10 June 2006
Time: To be confirmed. Probably meet at 4pm for bodypainting session. Assemble for start at 5pm (to allow cycle travel in pedestrianised streets).
Proposed York route
The ride would start at War Memorial Gardens and end at the Museum Gardens (which requires a short period of travelling by foot, pushing the bike).
Advantages of the route: The proposed York ride is mostly straightforward with minimal car traffic. It starts close to the Rail and Bus stations, and there is a Park and Ride parking a short cycle distance from the start of the route. The route passes various distinct features of York, including the York Cathedral, historic bridges, pedestrianised medieval streets, Shambles, the Ouse River bankside, Cliffords Tower, the Millenium cycle bridge, National Cycle route 65 and the beautiful riverside Museum Gardens.
