• Letsride followers (and other prospective CLOG members) can come on up to 3 events to try us out but after that you need to join CLOG (
https://membermojo.co.uk/clog) to continue with us.
• Most attendees are members of CLOG and not on Letsride, so RSVPs do not indicate the total numbers expected.
