A New Bicycle Club.

CYCLISTS.

Election of Officers of a New Bicycle Club.

Last evening the following bicycle riders met in the Hall of Records for the purpose of organizing a new bicycle club in Oakland: [[Guy Earl]], [[C. L. Tisdale]], [[Robert Edgar]], [[R. H. Magill, Jr.]], [[L. Sears]], [[W. W. Haralson]], [[W. J. Bowman]], [[L. A. Kelly, Jr.]], [[Charles Biederman]], [[Frank Blinn]], [[Julias Lutgen]], [[Alex. Ireland]] and [[J. D. Arkison]]. An election of officers resulted in the following choice: President, Guy Earl; Vice-President, C. L. Tisdale; Secretary and Treasurer, Robert Edgar. Road Officers - R. H. Magill, Jr., Captain, and L. Sears, Lieutenant. A uniform was adopted, which consists of dark shoes, navy-blue knit pants and coat with initial letters of club on coat-collar, white flannel shirt with blue trimmings and black velvet.

It is the intention of the club to limit the membership to those who will become active members and who have made a record in bicycling contests. It is their ambition to become the crack club of the State, and it will be the first recognized League club in California. The club has not adopted any name, but will probably do so at the next meeting, which will be held on the first Wednesday in October.

<blockquote>
The Bay City Wheelmen's team for the road race will consist of Elwell Adcock and Browning. The Sacramento team will consist of Brenner, Tolle and Cook. It is expected that San Jose, San Mateo and other clubs will be represented. The [[Oakland Ramblers]] (reorganized) will have charge of the race and will offer three prizes.

...

Arrangements are about completed for the twenty-five mile road race. There will be entries from San Francisco, Oakland, Sacramento and San Jose. The B. C. W. will be represented by Elwell Browning and a dark horse who is said to be an excellent rider. The Oakland Ramblers will have Ireland, Sears and Haralson to content for them, and the other two cities will have able representatives. The course is what is familiarly known to the boys as the "triangle," below San Leandro. This race will occur on Thanksgiving.

...

The Oakland Ramblers have come to the surface again in an astonishing manner, and as Oakland is too small to support two good clubs, the A. C. W. is consequently numbered with the things that were.

...

It is understood that the Ramblers will have a club house, as a committee have been appointed to secure the same.

WHEELERS.

The Programme for the State Meeting in Oakland.

The [[Oakland Ramblers]] have, by an unanimous vote, decided to support the following nominees at the coming election of the Californian Division, L. A. W.: R. M. Welch, Chief Consul, B. C. W.; R. H. Magill Jr., Secretary, Treasurer, [[Oakland Ramblers|O. R.]]; C. J. Krytser, Local Consul; J. D. Arkison, representative for Oakland.

The entry for the coming races is rapidly growing in size, and exceeds the fondest expectations of the most enthusiastic promoters of the meeting. The five mile L. A. W. State championship race and the mile maiden will be the prominent features of the day. The day's sport will consist of a parade by the wheelmen of the Pacific coast through the principal streets of Oakland and to the trotting park, where the following interesting programme will be carried out: 1. One mile maiden. 2. One mile tricycle. 3. Five mile L. A. W. State championship. 4. Three mile handicap. 5. One quarter mile dash. 6. Two mile handicap. 7. One mile tandem. 8. One half mile club.

The San Francisco wheelmen will leave the city on the 11:15 creek boat and will be met at the foot of Broadway by the [[Oakland Ramblers]] at 12 m., who will escort them through Oakland and to the track. The race will commence at 1:30 P. M. sharp.

Entries for the races close on Friday, February 18th.

The officers of the meeting will be as follows: Committee of Arrangements - C. J. Krytser, L. Sears, R. H. Magill Jr., C. D. Haven Jr., J. S. Tisdale: referee, Ralph de Claremont, San Francisco Bicycle Club; starter, J. D. Arkison, [[Oakland Ramblers|O. R.]]; judges - Harrison Houseworth, San Francisco Bicycle Club, Harry Hatch, [[Oakland Ramblers|O. R.]], W. M. Meeker Jr.; timers - George H. Strong, San Francisco Bicycle Club, William P. Lyons, [[Oakland Ramblers|O. R.]], E. Gibbs, San Francisco Bicycle Club; clerk of the course, J. L. Tisdale, [[Oakland Ramblers|O. R.]]; scorers - Philip Remillard, [[Oakland Ramblers|O. R.]], J. C. Lutjen, [[Oakland Ramblers|O. R.]], P. J. Chapman, [[Oakland Ramblers|O. R.]]

The Oakland bicyclists expect to have this year's meet of the California Division of the L. A. W. held in Oakland.

Hubert White is the latest addition to the bicycle ranks on this side of the bay. He has joined the [[Oakland Ramblers|Ramblers]].
