NEW TO CYCLING AS A SPORT?
We respect everyone's cycling jounery. We ask that you take ownership of your own abilities and skills. You must have some basic riding experience before joining for your own safety and the safety of the group. No group riding expereince (more than 2 people) is needed.
Please note that we are a 'sporty' group. We want to encourage people to ride more, gain confidence, and go a bit faster than a regular Touring group.
