New Standards Tables Agreed for 2012
At the National VTTA Annual General Meeting on 28 January the motion to introduce the new Standards Tables was agreed.
After a prolonged discussion the voting was 22 to 10 in favour of the motion. The two Kent delegates voted against the motion, in line with the wishes of the majority of the Group’s members who replied to the questionnaire in the Winter KVN News.
Although the formal minutes have yet to be received and some implementation details are still to be ratified by the VTTA NEC, it is the firm intention that the new tables will be used in all VTTA events in 2012 and henceforth.
Copies of the tables were distributed with the meeting agenda enclosed with the December issue of the "Veteran" and are also available for inspection on the national website at http://veteran-cycling-standards.org.uk/standards.htm.
It is the Groups intention to publish the new Standard Tables in the Spring issue of the KVN.
