I lived on the other side from 2008-2013 about half way between Omaha and Sioux City. Certainly miss Omaha, Lincoln, and all they offer.

I was wondering if any other people from CR is on the board. Now that I am getting into shape I hope to take part in some local group rides. Any suggestions?

Yep, lots to do over there on the Iowa - Nebraska border. I'm about 4 hours west though.

There are a bunch of clubs in the area -- depends on what style of riding you prefer. Serious training rides or bar-hopping?
