Saturday 3rd Dec - introduction ride

Forum Admin [Martin]

Hi all

There's currently no one to take this Saturday's monthly Intro Ride. Details are pasted below from an earlier forum note that covers the essentials. Maybe someone will step up? Note: there were no takers for the ride last month - but you can always latch on to Saturday's 9:30am ride if so.

All CCA members -

The club is going to bring in 'Introduction Rides' - on every first Saturday of each month. The idea is to help potential new members who are perhaps a bit unsure of fitness levels or wondering whether group cycling is for them - as well as being a ride for members who simply want a leisurely ride.

The rides - as now mentioned on the Club website - will ask for a minimum fitness standard of averaging 12-14mph speed for an hour or two: whatever the group can manage really.

The Club needs volunteers to help organize each ride, keep the ride friendly and fun - and pass on tips and advice. They start every first Saturday of a month, 9.30am Three Tuns car park, Ashwell - the same time/place as the regular Saturday Club Runners. The idea is if no one turns up, the organizer can join the group. Or if the attendees are able enough - they can latch onto the regular club runners.

Routes? They can be suggested on the forum - a couple of ideas;
19 miles http://www.bikemap.net/route/804167
12 miles http://www.bikemap.net/route/804161

If you'd like to put yourself forward - simply put your name down on this Doodle poll;

Let's see how they go!

Thanks

Nice n' easy - and luckily decent weather - especially for December.

Good luck Tom!
