AllanC Posted October 15, 2014 Report Share Posted October 15, 2014 Welcome to the Johnstone Wheelers Robert. We have 3 groups who roll out from our clubrooms in Miller Street in Johnstone at 9am on Sunday. The groups are; 30 milers Intermediate bunch Main bunch. Have a look on the Club Runs section for details of each of the runs. You're welcome along to 3 club runs before there is any expectation on you to become a paid member. Any questions just ask.... Cheers Allan Roberto 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexb Posted October 15, 2014 Report Share Posted October 15, 2014 Hey Robbo, new member myself this year. I found JWCC to be a welcoming and friendly bunch and have enjoyed many runs. Generally meet at Miller Street on Sunday mornings for the off at 9am. Often three groups - 30 milers, intermediates and main bunch, to choose from depending on your time and ability on the day. Committee members generally there on Sundays too so can take you through membership etc. Would recommend giving it a try. You won't look back.

Mark O Posted October 15, 2014 Report Share Posted October 15, 2014 Robert Firstly, welcome to Johnstone Wheelers and the bunch forum. Absolutely you can join a club ride or two as a taster. You'll find details of club rides under the club rides section of the forum. This week's main bunch ride is out Kilcreggan and back, circa 70 miles at a steady pace - 17mph ave for now. We meet at 09.00 on Sunday morning at the clubrooms on Miller Street Johnstone (just off the cycle track). The intermediate and 30 milers groups usually have their own run details posted up. The intermediate group will as a rule of thumb cover 50-60 miles around 15 mph and the 30 milers will cover up to 50 miles at a social pace. Come along and introduce yourself to the guys and girls. If you've been riding at a reasonable level for 28 years I'd suggest you consider the main bunch would suit you. The pace ia more relaxed at this time of year and we will look after you in any case.
