: Sunday club intro rides leader needed
: Chris Wilkinson May 01, 2017, 07:26:42 PM
I'm going in for another hernia operation tomorrow, so we'll need someone to take on the intro/club rides on the first sunday of the month for at least the next 2 months. All being well I should be back on it by July and will happily lead from then on.

Cheers

Bump. Anybody fancy leading the intro ride this sunday then?  :)

Is anybody planning on leading an intro/social club run this Sunday? Of not I can put something up but I'm away Saturday night so it'd have to be a later start on Sunday.

Not that I'm aware Alan, so if you could that would be great. I know we've had a couple of enquiries recently from potential new members looking for suitable rides so I'm sure it would be appreciated!

Hi Alan and Dan. I’ve had requests from three people who are keen to do this, so you’ll have takers I think.

Plus another; so that’s four potential takers.

Ok, have stuck a ride up for 11am from Coffee Fix.

For those interested in what intermediate rides are like here are a couple of Hugh's Wednesday rides: https://www.strava.com/activities/1014976951

It's a big step up from today's ride, but if you were feeling easy on the way back to coffee fix then you could give them a go. If not then there'll be another novice ride next month.

Chris - are you planning on leading July's intro ride?

If not, is there anybody else willing to lead it?

The weekend ride list is noticeably empty at the moment. We seemed to have some enthusiasm for re-invigorating our rides the other month, but that hasn't really translated into people posting Sunday club runs.

I've put a ride up for Sunday. I'm heading out into the peaks from the Velodrome at 9:30.

Don't forget it's the club hilly TT this Sunday,  so this should be prioritised above a club ride. (Maybe my post was ill-timed!)

Alan, I couldn't do this sunday anyway, and came on to ask for a volunteer, but as it's the TT this sunday is doesn't matter now. I'm back in August so will post some rides from the first sunday in August. See you then :)

First sunday of the month social rides posted until the foreseeable future. Looking forward to seeing some wheelers group rides again :)

Great stuff Chris.

TT was last week so have posted a ride up for this Sunday. Hilly route so have classed it as an intermediate  but all welcome (providing you like hills!), nobody left behind.

Sounds good, see you Sunday.
