What is everyone's plan for weekend rides?
Well my club are introducing a Saturday ride, it's aimed at new (road) cyclists who have never ridden as a group before. It's intended as a taster, and will only be around 20 miles. Currently we don't have any female members and one or two have expressed an interest.
I haven't been on a club ride lately due to illness, so thought I might have an easy ride out tomorrow.
That's a great idea for New riders
We do a very similar thing and it works well. You need to have some experienced ride leaders to make it a success. Our skyride leaders do ours and they're brilliant.Thats what we are hoping. New riders are often put off by long rides and tales of high average speeds. Some are wary riding as a large group and are actually surprised to find how easy it is.
