Thanks,

nada,

there are no 'sections' really, the club is mostly just a bunch of guys and gals of all ages and abilities giving it a go. for an introductory ride you can't go past the coffee ride on sunday mornings (so long as there's no race on the same day). its a cruisey ride at recovery pace where the emphasis is on having a yak and a coffee, and becoming comfy riding in a group. PM me if he wants more details on best pickup/drop off points for his current ability/fitness.

other option is to ride in E grade (25km) at calga. it's the social/beginner grade and riders can stay there as long as they like. Unless they blitz it of course, then they'll be asked to move along to D grade.
