Riding around STL.
It looks like I am moving back to St. Louis. However, I did not get into cycling(road) until I moved to North Carolina. I average about 21 MPH or a bit faster or slower depending in group rides with rolling terrain with some decent climbs. I was wondering what rides are good in the St. Louis area, and what groups are also good to ride with? I am looking into getting into races this Fall. Thank You in advance for any assistance.

This page might help: https://www.trailnet.org/trail_main.php. Now, that said, I don't really ride road bikes (not yet anyway - rebuilding one). There are quite a few events in the areas, mostly criterion style, as far as I can know. Look at some of the bike shop sites like Big Shark as well (other shops probably have the same thing, I just happen to have used their calendar before). They'll give you more of an idea of what's going on.
And this year we have the Tour of Missouri for the first time, which is a pro race that will cross the state over three days (starts in KC and ends in STL).
