boboneleg Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 I've got to say that I'm surprised by the number of riders in that group for a TRF run, I thought they had a limit of six in their voluntary code ? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand If i organise a ride i try to limit it to six but no real rule about numbers its up to the event organiser. We started off as seven and met Sarah and her fella on route taking us to nine. There was another group of about six left at the same time on the same route but in the opposite direction we didn't cross paths again that day with the other group 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
