Do you guys/girls have many noobs ride along with ya'll on this ride? Would love the chance to come along and experience some group rides and make new friends, i've riden with a couple of mates before which was good fun and im a fairly confident rider at my stage in riding, still a bit skittish on the tighter turns...but algood, still learning

I would recommend attending NASS on Wednesday nights instead, it includes a group ride from Westgate to Albany Mega Centre car park for some free rider training. Use the search button and enter "NASS" All the details are on the first page.

If you can ride at open road speeds you would will be fine.
We don't ride in a group as such as we ride at different speeds.

+1 to that. Depending on the number of riders we use either the pointer system where the rider immediately behind the leader stops and waits for the designated tail end charlie at each turn point, or the charge and wait where everybody waits at each turn off. The important thing is to ride your own ride. If the person in front of you is going faster than you are confident with, then don't try to keep up. Conversely, feel free to pass them if you want to go a bit faster

A group ride where we ride as a group.
