Ok just clicked onto the possible confusion...

As this is first ride, when Frosty and I organised this he indicated to me that this wednesday (today) would be tricky for him. So made the first AWNMR next week. the 13th.

The next rides will be first wed of jan, first wed of feb, etc etc

if there is good turnout. you think it would be possible to do 2 per month
say.. the first and third wednesday of each month??

Ill probably be there, just to annoy everyone. Or do burnouts.

I would imagine so, it depends on the turnout as well as the availability of the mentors...

Will see how it goes...

guys n gals--This is one fantastic idea BUT
the only way it will work is being a one on one situation with NO pressure from a group ride.
The dynamics of group riding just doesnt work for this situation
As such I think setting out in pairs--instructor /student at say 2.0 minute intervals going the same route will be fine
one thought would be to swap students at a designated half way point
a different prospective may help
