I've never joined or ridden with a club, but when I was starting out distance riding I did a few FNRTTC's.  I stopped doing them because I found the policy of "leaving no-one behind" meant I was waiting around at the top of hills (e.g. Ditchling) and, during the winter especially, getting bloody cold (who can forget the night of the horizontal hail  :o).

Not complaining - the rides were great fun.  Guess I just outgrew them.  But going the speed of the slowest can put off other riders off who aren't fast enough to join the next group up (if there is one) but also don't want to be constantly stopping.  Of course many others may not mind in the slightest  ;)

Even within the output of one musician - John Coltrane, for example - you have what might pass as 'smooth' (his work with John Hartman) through to his later experimental work (which I find pretty challenging).

I have a soft spot for Miles Davis who likewise had an incredibly varied output over his career.

You could reduce it considerably by deleting the replies referring to Half Man Half Biscuit.

This is, in part why I'm no longer part of a club.

As a newly diagnosed type 1 diabetic, trying to learn how to manage the condition, I was stopping to test every hour. There were certain twunts in the club, despite the pre ride briefing decided to leave me for dead. Unfortunately the rest decided to follow.

Now a moot point as I have a CGM but that particular a$@ehole is still in the club
