If you are a lady and interested in riding socially in a small group, the fabulous ladies group may be for you! Meeting often the second Saturday each month, a select group of us cycle for about an hour to a cafe, and then back, or a short ride to end at the cafe where we started. Very civilised! Very friendly!!
Questions? - post here!

Meeting time is at 10am, for a fairly prompt start - only so that we have time for a cuppa either half way round or at the end (the cafe closes at 12:45). We meet at Kingsway community cafe - in the corner of the Kingsway shops. If you Google 'Kingsway cafe' it will come up on a useful map, but contact me for more information if still unsure.
Yes and no to the lycra clad - I wear cycling gear as I own it and it is the most suitable and comfortable clothing to wear. But not everyone is in 'lycra'.
And as for 'whizzy' - I can confidently say no. It is sociable, I would never leave anyone, and we ride at the pasce of the slowest, or wait at appropriate times (if going uphill, you have to ride at your own pace but we would wait at the top at a safe place). A common comment by ladies who have come out for the first time is that they were unsure they would keep up, but admit to being pleasantly suprised after coming out.
I would also tailor the ride to newcomers, and the weather - but will not admit to distances until you have been out. We are usually out for about 2 1/2 - 3 hours, leaving the rest of Saturday and the weekend for the family. Or shopping!
