I'm quite new to cycling but have been enjoying it immensely. I've just gifted myself a new bike and am contemplating joining a club to maybe do some racing.
Being unfamiliar, I'm just wondering what's involved / what to expect?
I'd appreciate any info / recommendations you guys might have for me.
PS I'm based out of the northern suburbs (Lalor).
Cheers

Just do it!. Keep putting it off and you never will. What have you got to lose? You can get a 6 month Cycling Australia licence right now to take you till the end of December.

Hi, I'm in Lalor too, I've been told by the senate that I'm not allowed to ride comps until next year (she needs me around to help with the squids and the newbie) send me a message if you want someone to ride with.
