So I ventured out with the local club this morning.
They merged the beginers and inters group together, I started off at the back so I could work out what the ettiquette was and after a while was comfortable in the front 1/2 dozen or so pace wise. Particularly on the climbs which is pleasing. 42 miles covered in 2 hrs 41 minutes ( moving time ) Seemed a bit disorganised with no ride leader and a bit of confusion over route and turn offs and we lost one of the slower lads off the back of group and somebody went back for him, but then the group got split and didnt wait. I stayed with my mate so eventually ended up in the back group as he was going back and marshalling the slower riders around the route. Think I'm going to try it again, I've got another two rides I can do before I join which I think I probably will. I need to get used to riding in a group though as at the moment I dont like it, I think its because its not predictable what people will do I just need to get a bit more comfortable with it. I had a couple of guys come up my inside when I was turning around a left hand bend and pinch my space and if I hadnt shoulder checked over my left shoulder I dont think it would have ended well. Just trying to concentrate and hold my line, I've got enough bike fitness so I can keep up which I'm pleased about.
