Jason, is that Essex Roads? Was debating popping along one Sunday to their "anyone can come" ride.
Hi , yes it's Essex Roads
They were great, we had me and one other person that was new and they made the ride purposely slow so that we never struggled.
At one point my chain came off and two of the guys, stayed behind to help me with it.
Very friendly bunch.
I am currently riding every other day, roughly 15 miles.
Billericay, round Hanningfiled Reservoir and back again, it's a very pleasant route if anyone fancies coming along PM me
Ericck, i wouldn't worry about not being the fittest, i puff like a train as soon as i put any effort in, i have been reliably told that with regular riding i will notice a remarkable difference by about 3 months The first three hills i tried in billericay, i had to get off and walk. Then a local chap gave me advice not to rush at the hill, and just get in a low gear and let my legs spin up the hill. On the forth hill i tried this and to my amazement it worked. The key seems to be not to rush it.
