A social group ride for riders new to the concept and fearing that they are 'too slow' for other group rides.

Averaging around 20kph to 25kph depending on the group, can be slower if required.

Meet along esplanade in front of Brighton Surf Life Saving club

This is not a training ride and a Tail End Charlie will be appointed so that no one will be left behind.

There will be regular stops to regroup to ensure no one gets lost or left behind

We will be on some main roads but will be avoided where possible.

We will also have the opportunity of having a chat and buy a well earned (and almost mandatory) coffee and cake at the end.

Meet for a rider briefing at 7.45am for a 8am start.

If you have ever wanted to go on group rides, the most important thing is to GET STARTED.

All riders with a mechanically sound road or flat bar type bike and an approved helmet are welcome.

All riders ride at their own risk and are advised to have public liability insurance, and to carry emergency contact details.

Keep at it, come along next Saturday for the L ride 42 km you will love it.

Comment by Matt Koukourou on April 22, 2012 at 16:32: Great ride this morning. Nice to meet some new people to the group like, Simon, Blake and Geoff. Simon pass on the web site details to Geoff so he can keep an eye out for up coming events.

Comment by Phil Crick on April 21, 2012 at 17:21: Yeah I'm still going, gives me a chance to test my wet weather gear I just got.

RD6 - you stay at home mate, put your feet up, then I can get in front of you on the Strava Ride Hard to Breathe Easy challenge :-)
