Thanks Maury,

I am the guy that rode along with Josh Goldin this past Sunday. I enjoyed the ride with y'all very much but am looking for a weekday ride since I usually work most Saturday mornings.

Hi Alan,

I'd check with bramia@gmail.com to find out when he thinks they will
have a C group, for which 12 mph would work. This time of year, we
often form a C group for the Soiree. If there is not a C group, I'd
not recommend trying to keep up with the B group. They tend to average
16-17.

I'd check the website's description of the weekly rides to get more
information. I know that the BCB training team has formed a group that
rides that pace on Tuesday nights, and there is often a Saturday
morning social ride group that pace, and the Sunday morning coffee
ride too. You could contact the Mellow Mushroom ride leader to see if
he has a C group lately, and the new bike shop on Mendenhall is
putting together a shorter ride that might work, as well.

Keep asking and looking, and I'm sure you'll find a group or two to
ride with. If you come to the Tour de LaGrange, meet the people riding
your pace (after a few miles), and see where they ride. These are a
few tips I've picked up in the last few years.

Good luck and don't give up! If you ride enough, you'll soon be able
to keep up with the B folks, who seem to have more rides than the
rest. I hope to see you on the road!

Patricia

Alan L Prouser

Thanks Maury,
I am the guy that rode along with Josh Goldin this past Sunday. I enjoyed the ride with y'all very much but am looking for a weekday ride since I usually work most Saturday mornings.

Alan  -  The BCB 100 Training team has a ride Saturday morning leaving at 6:30 am  about 40 miles averaging about 12 mph.  We will leave from the Southerland Clinic on Humphries / Wolf River Blvd.  If you would like - call me tomorrow at 901-230-4186   -  Maury

Hi Alan,

I'd check with bramia@gmail.com to find out when he thinks they will
have a C group, for which 12 mph would work. This time of year, we
often form a C group for the Soiree. If there is not a C group, I'd
not recommend trying to keep up with the B group. They tend to average
16-17.

I'd check the website's description of the weekly rides to get more
information. I know that the BCB training team has formed a group that
rides that pace on Tuesday nights, and there is often a Saturday
morning social ride group that pace, and the Sunday morning coffee
ride too. You could contact the Mellow Mushroom ride leader to see if
he has a C group lately, and the new bike shop on Mendenhall is
putting together a shorter ride that might work, as well.

Keep asking and looking, and I'm sure you'll find a group or two to
ride with. If you come to the Tour de LaGrange, meet the people riding
your pace (after a few miles), and see where they ride. These are a
few tips I've picked up in the last few years.

Good luck and don't give up! If you ride enough, you'll soon be able
to keep up with the B folks, who seem to have more rides than the
rest. I hope to see you on the road!

Patricia
