 About the Club
    The Fairbanks Cycle Club is a non-profit organization, whose members are bicycling enthusiasts. Some are hard-core competitive racers, others simply enjoy getting out for relaxing group rides. FCC has been around for a decade or more, knit together by a core group of members who enjoy devoting time to the club, and the biking community. Bicycling safety is important to FCC, and most members ardently support safety awareness, helmet advocacy, etc. Primarily though, we ride. FCC is not a political organization. There's plenty of that in the world without our contributing to it. So, if you enjoy bicycling, and would like to learn about great new rides, enter a few races, or explore some cool trails, become a member today. The membership application is available online.

 Current Officers
 Other Positions

    Website Maintainer: Tom Clark - spokes@fairbankscycleclub.org

    Historian: Office No Longer Held -
      Before Al Gore invented the Internet, the historian was the keeper of newspaper clippings, race results, photos, articles, etc; all things pertinent to the club. With the advent of the club website, it was decided to vacate the office of the historian.


 About the Site
    The site is intended to be efficient, in terms of bandwidth. Not everybody has broadband to their computer, so multi-media content and graphics are minimal. Even the photo archive is built for speed. Each thumbnail image is 100 pixels wide, and is a link to the fullsize image.

    The images were gleaned from all over, and shaped using Paint Shop Pro v6, a powerful yet inexpensive graphics program. There are more expensive packages out there, but this one does more than most people would ever need.

    The entire site was coded using ASCII text editors like Pico, Jed and VI. Just to be fair, a few pages were created with Windows Notepad, another text editor. There are HTML editing tools out there, but this way, only the HTML tags needed are used, further reducing bloat.

    Liam Wescott has helped with the maps section of the website, adding new rides, and updating old ones.

    The site is hosted on a way cool Linux server at www.1and1.com.
    Linux is the BOMB.
