Hello Cycling People ☺️

I’m looking for a road cycling group for during the week and weekends… I’ve been riding for a few years but would like to join a group for the safety and social side. If there are any out there (in and around the area) that are happy to have a extra lady on board please let me know. 
 

Averaging speeds anything from 24-29km/h 

TIA

☺️

Try ICG, Illovo Cycling Group. Exceptional group of riders with a strict conduct code and safety, all rides are no drop rides and there's a number of different groups. 
Generally the groups meet for a 5am departure from Engen/MacDonalds in Rosebank.
They're on FB and Instagram.

You can also try the Peak Triathlon team. My cousin races with them and I join them occasionally they welcome anyone. Lots of woman riding and not only Tri. They generally ride cradle from either Broadacres or Pedal and Sprocket. I can put you in touch if you are interested.

Agree on the Exceptional group - very special group of ppl... Just a correction - the A rides are not "no drop"... but generally if you do get dropped there is a B coming a few minutes behind

Perhaps for riders not fit enough, but for mechanicals no drop is a none negotiable. At least in my experience and as communicated by the admins. 
I do also like the fact that with new riders an ICG regular needs to introduce and ride with them the first few rides at least.
