I hear a lot of what in my grumpier moments I might call "complaints" that the OBC 
doesn't cater
aggressively enough to slower riders.

speed.

I wonder whether the people who say we are not friendly enough to these interests have 
considered
volunteering themselves to run these activities.

The volunteers in the club put in a pretty good effort, I think, and they can't do 
everything.

If you want it, you may have to pitch in to make it happen.
