I read an article somewhere recently, about new breeds of cycle club who link through Social Media or Strava. This was in addition to, or instead of actual real life meets and rides.
It was extremely interesting and made me think about setting one up in South Wales. It's just an idea at present, but would anyone be interested in something like this?
The concept I have in mind is to start it small, as a Strava based club, and then increase in numbers from there. Can start as a virtual thing at first, but then expand to meets too.
I have been fairly keen on joining a local club for a while, but looking at their websites has put me off, as they seem stuffy and elitist at times. I also can't commit to turning up each and every meet and I don't want to let anyone down. I can't be alone in this view?
Feel free to reply with your thoughts guys?
I may be completely off the mark. We shall see.
