Why wait for the rescheduled newcomer ride? Just pick a ride and go! For example, tomorrow (Sunday, 6/13), the All-Class ride offers lots of rides at different levels starting at the same time and place. This would be an ideal way for you to jump in. Just be at the boathouse in Central Park around 8:55 so you can pick an appropriate group and you can get started right away. Riding is lots of fun so don't wait to get started!
