It is important when you are allocated to your group that you stay with the group for the complete ride. Each group will have a focal point who will ensure no one is dropped.

If you find the group is not right for you then you can find the right level the following week. If you are unsure of what level you are at start in a slower group and work your way up until you find your level.

Each group will have no more than 8 riders.

There is useful information on the here giving guidance on group riding

Please take the time to read this if you are new or unsure of what you should be doing.

Remember your lights and suitable clothing - warm and visible. Looks like it might be a bit cooler and breezy.

Club Membership

Anyone regularly cycling in club training rides should be a member of the club. If you are new to cycling or to the club and want to give it a try first you are more than welcome. If after several outings you decide you want to continue then please join.

Also those of the committee who attend the session have noted several previous members who still wear the club colours with pride and are continuing to ride with the club but have not renewed their membership. Please do so at the earliest opportunity. It means you and the club are better covered if there does happen to be an incident, and it's fairer for everyone that are already members.

£20 for an year's membership is very reasonable.

You can join/renew at www.stonehaven.bike

Thank you all for your continued support.

Looking forward to an incident free and enjoyable nights cycle.
