SpOkeD Posted June 6, 2017 Share If I were to join on a slower day, i.e. Wednesday or Friday on a MTB, would I be accepted in the group to ride along? Sometimes road riders can be funny when it comes to things like that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EmJayZA Posted June 6, 2017 Share As long as you can keep up at about 28km/h..........but why? Why ride in a group, or why ride on an MTB? Edited June 6, 2017 by EmJayZA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpOkeD Posted June 6, 2017 Share As long as you can keep up at about 28km/h..........but why?I do not have a road bike... Also looking for groups to ride with as I feel that it is much safer and a cool opportunity to meet people and see new routes.

It would be like a guy pitching in the Vets starting shoot with his MTB. Wed and especially Fridays, who cares go have fun. coppi and SpOkeD 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stiggy Posted June 6, 2017 Share There are always 2 groups that leave from the Engen, the slower groups generally leaves around 4:50, faster group around 4:55.Rock up, say hi and ask which group is leaving. I suggest starting in the B group. Always a good ride and everyone is generally friendly and will help. Brandon P, SpOkeD and EmJayZA 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coppi Posted June 6, 2017 Share Why ride in a group, or why ride on an MTB? Training alone gets tedious, so not hard to imagine why. I was asking why ride a mtb on a road training ride, read properly! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
