How many people train but don't race (or do 'timed' events)

I only took up road biking after injuring my foot while running. I joined a local cycling club with plenty of fast riders. I’m using TR mainly so that I can keep up on their fast rides (18-20 mph).

I might take up some of the Beginner Racing Program or CX training camps in the area. However, my main goal is to do some gran fondos at a faster clip than what I can do today
