Group Skills - 14 March

Group Skills is a chance to learn and share our group riding skills so that we can ride together more safely, more sociably and with less effort. This is a great opportunity for current and prospective members to build on skills, especially for those unable to find a place in the Introductory Rides.

If you are a prospective club member, completing this course will allow you to join ICC

We will look at communication skills and formations such as pace line and two up, plus how to pace/lead the ride from the front and rotate being at the front.

Note that we will adjust the level depending on the level of who shows up.

If you know all this, come and share your knowledge and if you don't, come and take advantage of the sharers.

If you are new to the club and wish to become a member you will need to complete either a Group skills or an Introduction to club cycling training session. Please make yourself known to the ride leader so they can confirm your attendance to our membership manager.

Meet in the Regents Park Inner Circle, at the big gates opposite York Bridge.

Would be great to come along and do this with a view to riding with ICC in during the week in the summer. If there is a midweek Group skills put on before this session I would come to that.

Thanks,

NOP

Looking forward to attending, hopefully we get the numbers up!

Looking forward to it, here's to the weather holding

Looking forward to this.

Hi there, I'm not a member yet but hoping to be. I'd like to come along to the skills session if that's ok.

Hi all, look forward to seeing you on Thursday.

If you are no longer able to make, please click you are no longer attending so we can gauge numbers and make sure there is space for others who may not have signed up yet.

One thing to note, if you are able to change your username from user12345 to something slightly more recognisable, it will greatly help us process membership applications.

Hi - just signed up, hoping not too late. I've been on a handful of rides with Central London CTC but this will be my first time with Islington CC, with a view to becoming a member.

Hi, I used my phone to say I could attend and for some reason it signed me up as just a number and not with my profile. I do apologise but my phone smashed and I can't undo it there - but please take one attendee off the list and I shall attempt to re-book next time. Apologies

Hi! I signed up for the ride but might not be able to be on time due to work. Is it possible to join a bit later, say 19:00, 19:30?

Unfortunately it won't be possible. You will miss the essential briefing and the session finishes between 19:30 and 20:00. There's another session on Saturday 23rd.

Great session tonight all. I was really impressed with the level of riding on the whole and how quickly everyone got into a tight riding group (and at a fair pace too). Thank you for attending and look forward to seeing you all on the road, Mike

Thanks @MikeMC and @Zac for a fun and useful session. I enjoyed it a lot.

Hope to see you guys around for some rides.
