Yeah - you know its going to be a bit of a sketchy session when the warmup group concertina's non-stop for half an hour :-/
The thing is, you don't have to ride inters to do Monday nights, you just do your induction and supposedly 3 basics. There were a couple of guys riding sketchily last week who hadn't ridden basics or anything, who just did their induction on the night and, bang: straight into race training.
I'm all for experienced club riders or people who race on the road doing fast track induction, but when people show up in t-shirts, board shorts and trainers it's usually a pretty good sign that they've not ridden bikes in a group before.
