Fortunately the one thing we do have here is a fun group almost every weekend. We started it out of our sponsor shop just about 9 mo ago...and its gotten big. We (small team) were asked by the shop owner if we would commit to showing up every Sun and heading out with everyone, and keeping it together for at least 10 miles or so, which is a nice little warmup. Most days plenty of "fast" or at least "motivated" guys show up, and we'll split off the front (the A ride). At times we'll have 10-15 most of the way. Its fun.
