  Test 2- Section 1

  [01:44.10JIM: Hello, South City Cycling Club.

  [01:47.09WOMAN: Oh, hi.

  [01:48.57Er ... I want to find out about joining the club.

  [01:52.16JIM: Right.

  [01:53.09I can help you there.

  [01:54.45I'm the club secretary and my name's Jim Hunter.

  [01:58.28WOMAN: Oh, hi Jim.

  [01:59.74JIM: So, are you interested in membership for yourself?

  [02:02.99WOMAN: That's right.

  [02:04.82JIM: OK.

  [02:05.18Well there are basically two types of adult membership.

  [02:09.54If you're pretty serious about cycling, there's the Full membership.

  [02:14.98That costs 260 dollars and that covers you not just for ordinary cycling but also for races both here in the city and also in other parts of Australia.

  [02:27.79WOMAN: Right.

  [02:29.17Well, I'm not really up to that standard.

  [02:32.27I was more interested in just joining a group to do some cycling in my free time.

  [02:36.44JIM: Sure.

  [02:37.69That's why most people join.

  [02:39.64So, in that case you'd be better with the Recreational membership.

  [02:45.06That's 108 dollars if you're over 19, and 95 dollars if you're under.

  [02:52.32WOMAN: I'm 25.

  [02:53.72JIM: OK.

  [02:55.19It's paid quarterly, and you can upgrade it later to the Full membership if you want to, of course.

  [03:01.61Now both types of membership include the club fee of 20 dollars.

  [03:06.96They also provide insurance in case you have an accident, though we hope you won't need that, of course.

  [03:14.55WOMAN: No.

  [03:15.59OK, well, I'll go with the Recreational membership, I think.

  [03:19.13And that allows me to join in the club activities, and so on?

  [03:22.74JIM: That's right.

  [03:24.60And once you're a member of the club, you're also permitted to wear our kit when you're out cycling.

  [03:30.93It's green and white.

  [03:31.43WOMAN: Yes, I've seen cyclists wearing it.

  [03:35.38So, can I buy that at the club?

  [03:37.73JIM: No, it's made to order by a company in Brisbane.

  [03:42.15You can find them online: they're called Jerriz. That's J-E-R-R-l-Z.

  [03:51.86You can use your membership number to put in an order on their website.

  [03:56.68WOMAN: OK.

  [03:57.80Now, can you tell me a bit about the rides I can do?

  [04:00.96JIM: Sure.

  [04:02.00So we have training rides pretty well every morning, and they're a really good way of improving your cycling skills as well as your general level of fitness, but they're different levels.

  [04:14.97Level A is pretty fast - you're looking at about 30 or 35 kilometres an hour.

  [04:21.85If you can do about 25 kilometres an hour, you'd probably be level B, and then level C are the novices, who stay at about 15 kilometres per hour.

  [04:34.05WOMAN: Right.

  [04:35.81Well I reckon I'd be level B.

  [04:38.67So, when are the sessions for that level?

  [04:41.61JIM: There are a couple each week.

  [04:43.99They're both early morning sessions.

  [04:46.43There's one on Tuesdays, and for that one you meet at 5.30 am, and the meeting point's the stadium - do you know where that is?

  [04:56.50WOMAN: Yes, it's quite near my home, in fact.

  [04:59.26OK, and how about the other one?

  [05:01.92JIM: That's on Thursdays.

  [05:03.77It starts at the same time, but they meet at the main gate to the park.

  [05:08.96WOMAN: Is that the one just past the shopping mall?

  [05:11.72JIM: That's it.

  [05:49.43WOMAN: So how long are the rides?

  [05:52.14JIM: They're about an hour and a half.

  [05:55.31So, if you have a job it's easy to fit in before you go to work.

  [06:00.14And the members often go somewhere for coffee afterwards, so it's quite a social event.

  [06:06.44WOMAN: OK.

  [06:07.43That sounds good.

  [06:08.79I've only just moved to the city so I don't actually know many people yet.

  [06:13.07JIM: Well, it's a great way to meet people.

  [06:15.69WOMAN: And does each ride have a leader?

  [06:18.32JIM: Sometimes, but not always.

  [06:21.19But you don't really need one; the group members on the ride support one another, anyway.

  [06:26.50WOMAN: How would we know where to go?

  [06:29.66JIM: If you check the club website, you'll see that the route for each ride is clearly marked.

  [06:35.47So you can just print that out and take it along with you.

  [06:39.49It's similar from one week to another, but it's not always exactly the same.

  [06:45.62WOMAN: And what do I need to bring?

  [06:48.17JIM: Well, bring a bottle of water, and your phone.

  [06:51.47You shouldn't use it while you're cycling, but have it with you.

  [06:55.24WOMAN: Right.

  [06:56.31JIM: And in winter, it's well before sunrise when we set out, so you need to make sure your bike's got lights.

  [07:03.90WOMAN: That's OK.

  [07:06.10Well, thanks Jim.

  [07:07.05I'd definitely like to join.

  [07:08.32So what's the best way of going about it?

  [07:11.50JIM: You can ...
