In 2010, host housing for cycling teams revealed key trends, including a minimal denial rate and an unexpected customer base, primarily consisting of medium-sized teams (5-10 riders). Challenges included a shortage of large slots and incomplete host information, leading to last-minute additions. To improve future coordination, we propose appointing a dedicated Host Housing Promoter for each race, standardizing housing information forms, and using Google Docs for compatibility. Additionally, we aim to forecast housing demand and expand our housing pool to include local sports clubs and schools.

2010 Trends • Very Few Denials • Unexpected “customer base” • Very few small teams (< 5 riders) utilized housing • Most users were medium sized (5-10 riders) teams
2010 Issues • Lack of large slots • Had to spread larger teams among several slots to meet their needs • Prioritization • First Come, First Serve? • Based Upon Need • Incomplete Host Information • Last minute additions
Ideas for the Future • Appoint a Host Housing Promoter for Each Race • Make this a requirement! • Standardized Forms for Host Housing Information • Use of GoogleDocs to avoid compatibility issues
Ideas for the Future • Forecast Supply/Demand • Housing Availability Estimate by February Meeting • Housing Needs by February • Encourage better “effort” from both sides • Expand Host Housing Pool • Other students, sports clubs, etc. • Members of the cycling community (non-collegiate) • Schools in the surrounding area (where applicable)
