Hi guys, Im going to put the info about the Weds evening 1st April chain gangs, and links to the others (Elmers end, Friday Am Regents and Richmond park sessions)in the women's newsletter... but Im aware that we already have three pages of discussion on various different chain gangs, brilliant to see so many keen Paragonettes, but maybe a bit confusing to new people?
Libby and Kathryn - is there any way to bump the basic info of time, place and speed to the first page, and add to scroll to the end to see the latest updates? Thanks!

Weds evening Women only Chain gang starts Weds 1st April at 6pm - 8pm. I will be there! Suitable for beginners and those looking to improve their group riding skills, or build fitness to try the Elmers end chain gangs later in the summer. Meeting on the corner of the outer circle (the bottom right hand corner as you look at the map!) Opposite side of the road from where a very short road called 'park square east' (it comes off Marylebone Road) enters the park and joins the outer circle. www.google.com/maps/@51.5244369,-0.1454182,15z?hl=en If you're later than 6pm, don't worry - we ride around anti-clockwise, so you can either ride clockwise, and you'll spot us, or wait on that corner, as we stop there occasionally anyway. First hour is usually outer circle, chain gang and group riding skills, second hour is usually inner circle and drills, such as practising sprints or riding off the front of the group in pairs, to catch the group back up again in as few laps as you can. I wouldn't claim to be the best group rider ever, but its all about sharing what we know with others and improving together! Anyone who enjoyed these sessions last year, please do come along! If you can sign up to help out, that would be brilliant! Let Libby or Kathryn know if you can help. See you there Paragonettes

Three of us out today for the first womens Chaingang of the year! We did one legged drills round the inner circle till the legs were content. Would be great to see some newer ladies out next week...these sessions are for those who wanna train midweek central after work and are perfect for learning chaingang skills...we'll teach you all you need to know and you won't be dropped. Post up here if you fancy coming next week. Kat

Hi, I'd be interested in coming along at some point but am rather slow. Is there a minimum speed I should aim for before coming along?

No not at all, the focus is skills based and on getting us all riding together in a group. The pace will always suit everyone so please don't have a concern about that! You should just come along and give it a go! :-)

Second what Alice said... Those who feel stronger can go in a harder gear or spend more time on the front so everyone gets a workout but we stay together.
