If you're interested in riding with a ratti old bike and his ratti old owner, I am trying to organise a workday pootle that might suit you. maybe be away a couple of hours on a wednesday or friday during work hours. SOme of the Ulyssians are keen to come along so you will be with experienced riders who can maybe offer a pointer if they see something. Its all very casual and low key. pm me if you might be interested.
