I know I have not attended many rides of late but, James is right. I think it would be very unwise for WB to organise an official ride split into two groups with any hint or suggestion that the second group was in place to accommodate those who wished to ride at a faster pace.

I don't wish to sound like a party pooper but, the implications are obvious. When I like to get a bit of pace on (safely and within the legal limits of course) I ride alone or on unofficial rides.
