If they're bitching about people being to slow they should be moved up a group

Seems we've got to hold peoples hands the whole way 'round now.

Way i see it, if you wanna do a trackday, expect to get overtaken.

I can fully apreciate that they may well get intimidated and spooked pretty easily, and it's only fair to give them plenty of room......but as you say.....for fucks sake!

Surely if you don't want to overtake etc....you could go on a Ulysses run or something....mind you....some of those people really honk along!

The slow group was also called the novice group. Get it?

Where do people who ride in the fast/race group get off criticizing those who ride in the slow group. They're meant to be slow and scared. Most of them haven't been on a track before and some of them even get worried on group rides. Some of them are even girls!

Slow/novice group was no passing on the inside.

Slow and medium had a lead rider that you couldn't pass. If you caught him you should move up a group.

I was in the slow group on my bucket and got blocked on most corners by slow riders... but that's to be expected and I never complained about it, just commented on it. I expect to have to give way to slower/novice riders at a trackday not carve them up. On a race day it's a different story.

Easy big boy, I don't think anyone was seriously suggesting that people wanting to be in the slow group should bugger off/harden up.

Despite her munted rave in pigeon english, sallo is quite right to be a annoyed if she was persistently being cut up by others in the slow group.

That is pretty disappointing really. What do they expect the pace to be in a group called the 'Slow' group!

I think the genuine novice riders did really well on Saturday, the slow group was way faster than last years slow group (from my memory) and it can be very intimidating being passed on the inside on a corner.

I can understand riders wanting more track time so ride in multiple groups, but if you are riding in the slow group then there has to be some concessions made, like you say we all gotta start somewhere.
