Hi
I am new to the Forum and a newbie rider (started about 10 months ago), have been meaning to come to a club night and join OVW for a while now.

This thread has a special interest to me, as I have thought about asking to join one of your Sunday rides for sometime, however it's confusing which group is suitable for my ability?

I also have not ridden in a group before, so do not know the etiquette, the renaming of the different Rder Groups based on ability, speed and experience, to something a little bit simpler as suggested, would in my eyes make it easier for potential new members to see where they would fit in.

Hi Paul

Regarding etiquette riding in a group, it is mostly straightforward and people in the group will all help you out. Some more politely than others! 

Have a quick google of cycling websites, most of the'rules' are consistent between clubs/groups

Thanks for the comments, Paul

In the main, regular riders know what they are letting themselves in for on any particular ride (regardless of what the group is called), so it is good to get a view point from a 'potential newbie' perspective.

Hopefully whatever the groups are called in the future will reflect the pace etc of that ride.
