Introduction ride - volunteers required
![Forum Admin [Martin]](https://forum.ccashwell.co.uk/uploads/userpics/965/nPDJKRPRUHOC1.jpg)
We need volunteers for these rides for the coming months.
Anyone can take these rides and they will make a pleasant change from your usual club run introducing people to the club and showing them how we ride and suggesting routes is very rewarding
So please volunteer here! doodle poll
a reminder of what its all about - we run an Intro ride twice a month on the 1st and 3rd Saturday. These are for any riders who want a shorter / steadier version of the club run - approx 15-25 miles at around 12-14 mph ish depending on demand. These rides are ideally suited to newcomers to the club. We need volunteers to turn up and navigate these rides. No rider leader qualifications or experience required, you just need to have a route in mind and adapt to the needs of whoever turns up.

We recommend all riders to have insurance as individuals, and think the British Cycling insurance is best in our opinion.

I've volunteered for a couple - just 18th May left to fill now.
I think Susan will be out this Saturday - fingers crossed, forecast looks more spring like at last
Thanks

but I think Andrew Macskeen filled in the Doodle around the same time you posted that you would do it George.
Andrew - to be clear could you confirm are you taking the ride, or George?
Thanks to you both for volunteering
Best,

I am thinking about coming down to give this a go tomorrow 15th. I am not a member of the club but is it ok to come down and see what it is all about?
How many people do you normally get on these rides?
Also what is the next club ride distance/speed after the intro ride?

I have led a couple of the Intro rides and numbers can generally vary anywhere between 5 and 10
The next step up is the normal Saturday Club ride. Somewhere around 16mph (depending who's on) at around 40 miles. Club rides - nobody is left behind.
Just be there ready to roll at 9:30.
See you guys tomorrow
we generally allow up to 5 rides with the club before asking that you become a member
if you do decide to join up its very reasonable, £15 for adults or £5 for under 18's

Hello all,
I've drawn the straw for tomorrow's intro ride. Depending on numbers and enthusiasm we will do a fairly local route of 15-25 miles at a steady rate that everyone is happy with.
See you at the Three Tuns at 09:30.
