Group Ride

So this weekend I decided to try a group ride that is organized by my local tri club. I have ridden with at most three other people so this was a new experince for me. The ride was labled a Intermediate ride with a distance of around 40 miles.

The ride started off extremely slow and spent the first part waiting a lot for the other groups to catch up, this got old real quick. So after about 15 miles of the stop and go myself and about four others just rode to the finish to get a nice continuous ride in. Let me tell you riding with a group is way different, even with the stop and go from the beggining we were still able to average a nice 18 mph while not feeling tired at all.

I was hesitant at first about the whole group ride thing but let me tell ya it was a blast, the ride was nice, the company was nice and it went a lot faster than expected.

Looking forward to the ride this Saturday.
