Schlumberger Cycling Club |
We currently have about 200 members, some of whom are volunteers. Typically between 50 and 120 members will show up for a club training ride.
Our club was founded by Schlumberger employees. We recruit at Schlumberger and are sponsored by Schlumberger, but you do not have to be associated with or work for Schlumberger to join the club.
We have a wide range of cycling experience, skill and physical ability in the club. Old, young, slow, fast, short, tall, heavy and thin, we’ve got it all. Every year we have lots of first-timers who are slow and unsure of themselves. That’s one of the reasons we stress the Group Cycling Skills class (the earlier the better) and why we have Early Season Coaches to ride with the beginners to help and encourage them.
We receive yearly sponsorship from Schlumberger. The sponsorship is the reason why the membership cost remains low and we are able to provide free jerseys, clothing incentives and year-round supported rides. As a result membership fees are not reimbursed through Schlumberger
