Thanks for the responses.
Just to be clear, I’m talking about after lockdown and when we are able to ride as a group.
People are right when they say club members organise rides on different days to the official club rides but it can be difficult to feel part of these when you don’t attend the club rides like everyone else.
ps I live in Leamington, Warwickshire
You'd be surprised how many never go on the official rides. My club has an annual presentation ceremony and the trophy for most regular rider in 2019 went to someone who's never done an 'official' ride - he's only ever done the 6/7am Sunday Dad's Club ride. I go on 1-2 Sunday rides a year at most, together with a handful of Wednesday/Saturday rides: I need to be registered with a club for TT'ing and it helps for race entries.
The comment from the club president giving the trophy was - "Most of us have never met him, and we don't know what he looks like except for dark early-morning club ride photos, but the trophy goes to .... ah, so that's who you are."
But I can understand where you're coming from. If you're looking to do it informally a Facebook group plus messages helps. As posted by
@PaulSB above there's lots of people riding who wouldn't consider a typical club-type activity and may welcome an opportunity to ride with others once the current situation gets easier. For me it was about new routes, learning new things and meeting other riders.
