  Yes it will go ahead unless conditions are dangerous. If anyone is going to pull out due to the weather (and it looks like it should be fine by then) then please say as its not fair on those of us who give up our free time to run these sessions when people register and then don't turn up.

  Yes, you have to do one of them, not both, though the intro ride gives you more of a flavour of a club ride

  As long as you've paid through BC, the membership secretary will process your application now you've attended this ride. It may take a few days as the club is run by volunteers.

  There are a couple of Saturday rides posted and there has been chat on WhatsApp about Sunday but nothing definite yet (i.e. you will have people to ride with, though clearly a lot of us are doing RL).

  Glad to hear it. I actually forgot to mention that I had exploratory knee surgery on my R knee approx 25 years ago (after excessive running) + broke my L knee cap (it took the impact of the kerb when a careless pedestrian ran into me while I was cycling) 5 years ago. The latter needed an operation the next day to pin it and then another 6 months later to take the pins out. So knee surgery isn't necessarily a barrier. Enjoy the Group Skills session and I hope it persuades you to sign up

  Juliette, firstly its not a "test". It's about teaching you how we ride together in a group and also to give you an idea of whether you think the club is right for you. So I would definitely come along, even if you have doubts, as there's nothing to lose really, especially in Regent's Park as you're not going to be out in the middle of nowhere if its too much for some reason. On a personal note, I'm a similar age to you and haven't been running for around 25 years because I ran too much in my twenties. I certainly couldn't run 5km but I can cycle 100 miles+ as cycling is much kinder on the knees. You would probably be fine with mountain bike cleats, which release easily, but there's certainly no need to use cleats to cycle with the club. So please come along and I hope you enjoy it, Stephen
