On this date, one year ago, I participated in my first ride with the Ballincolig Crusaders Cycling Club. I remember the 40 km ride being challenging despite it being a White ride (slowest group), but I was able to get through it with encouragement from the other riders.
In general, the members of the club have been very welcoming!
Since then I've participated in many rides, including century rides and rides with the Yellow and Reds (the faster groups)
