IEEE VIS MEETUP - THURSDAY 29th OCTOBER 2015 - 6:15 in SALON 2
The Velo Club de VIS is a lightweight (dis)organization with the aim of encouraging IEEE VIS participants to ride together on a pre-determined route on the weekend following the conference.
Last year we marked IEEE VIS’ own Tour de France by establishing an open and informal road cycling club as a post-VIS tradition.
This year we are planning another Tour on Saturday 31st and a gentler Prologue on Friday 30th - a Lakefront social ride.
Terms of Reference, information on Le Tour de VIS 2015 and other details are at :

We ask all riders to attend the MeetUp at IEEE VIS for a briefing at which we will :
- confirm the routes and timings
- share contact information
- consider the weather forecast and group riding
- get riders to sign on for the ride
- iron out any issues that arise
- decide whether we are going for pasta on Friday (all welcome)
- distribute club jerseys for those who ordered (and have paid)
Others who wish to join the club are welcome as we use the MeetUp to :
- reflect on the club and its operation
- encourage cycling at IEEE VIS and in the VIS community
- volunteer for roles in next year's Velo Club
