@eds @Sir_Shannonball thanks for the explanation. I've obviously not been paying attention.

@eds you shouldn't need to join the club to see the postings for Sunday club rides. You only need to join the club to post to the forum IIRC. Has this changed? Potential members should be able to see what rides are being advertised and then come along on a Sunday to try out the club.
Anyone is welcome to come along and join in as a guest for one or two of our club rides. Then you'll be asked to join, of course.http://forum.islington.cc/comments/410/

@user65545 @eds I think there is a problem with the forum not showing the club rides section - a group, b group, and c group. Can @Sir_Shannonball or someone fix this?
-
@user65545 Sunday club C rides are listed here http://forum.islington.cc/conversations/619/?offset=1300
Sunday b rides http://forum.islington.cc/conversations/617/?offset=1975
A rides http://forum.islington.cc/conversations/615/?offset=975
Rides leave at 8.30am. Make sure you are at Whittington Park by 8.20 to listen to the announcements from ride leaders. Just turn up and say hello.

@Massy also be sure to view the group riding video here http://forum.islington.cc/comments/12973386/ and the ICC Group Riding Guide http://forum.islington.cc/comments/9017/ before riding with us.

Kerb, metre. Dynamically assess the road and traffic situation.

At least half a metre.

+user63652 there's such a lot going on in ICC that it is difficult to give a short answer. Rides are advertised usually a few days in advance on the forum here http://forum.islington.cc/microcosms/114/
Generally new riders are encouraged to join one of the Sunday club runs where there are rides starting from 30 to 40 miles. The club has a strong emphasis on group riding and it is essential new riders understand group riding techniques.
A helpful overview on group riding can be found on the GCN website https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QPXijIKgFVM&feature=youtu.be

+AmyM you can still join a 'C' group on Sundays -- no need to book, just turn up. Please read the group riding guide before you do. Rides are published here http://forum.islington.cc/conversations/619/
