what do you think of the CTC

[dellzeqq]

nothing complicated - and it doesn't matter if you know nothing or next to nothing about the organisation. Just tell us what your impression is.

This article that came on my FB a while ago made me think "boring".

Boring, old,insurance. I went to BC.

Joined 3 years ago. Went on about 6 rides. Sometimes painfully slow, mostly decent folks but not the types I would go for a night out with. Had a slight altercation with one bloke on a ride out because I went on ahead of the main group after the run leader had told us it was fine to do so but to wait at a certain place known to me. Some took it all too seriously. Renewed for one year then after that didn't bother. Won't be bothering again.

Decent value, reasonably interesting mag
Local to where I am now (but you wouldn't know it)
Supplier of traditional rides to the middle-aged
Host to a moaning forum
Far preferable to BC
Confused - why does a road organisation support downhill mountain biking?
Hiding its light under a bushel in respect of its innovative development of policy

Declarations of interest - I am a member, and every so often we bump into Roger Geffen (whom R knew at college) at a concert or at the opera.

I'm a member of LCC and only joined CTC as an associate to go on Fridays rides. I know LCC has lots of critics but it seems more relevant to me as the bulk of my riding is in London. Last week I did get a email from West Kent CTC thanking me for joining recently (18 months or so!) and giving me details of upcoming rides. I don't get the magazine but do get their emails which I generally look at. Occasionally I learn about events or news that I didn't already know about.
