What was my my first ride with the club like?

What is the fun in being a lone wolf? Isn't it more satisfying to run with the pack?

I can't remember exactly when i joined HMCC, about 4 years ago I think. But I can remember my first ride with the club.

I'd not been cycling long before i moved to Ormskirk, maybe 3 months or so. I didn't know anyone who lived in Ormskirk, I'd never even spent any significant amount of time in Ormskirk  before. You may be able to tell, the move here was not my idea- I was happy with it, just a bit out on a limb. My wife had told me there was a cycling club, but well.... I didn't know anyone so......

So, I cycled
