Put the bike on your car and drive somewhere. Every Sunday, my wife and I drive about 30 miles to meet up with our riding group, which often rides back up here, within a couple miles of our house. How it is. There has to be a number of bike shops in town. Most bike shops have group rides. They ride somewhere. Find out where.
