why do i bother? i am OBVIOUSLY the only one affected by this, otherwise one of you would be riding in the middle with me
If it's not fun, don't do it. It's that simple. Life's too short.

You can most likely find a more chill group to ride with, though, that's a better match. Testosterone overdose will always be a problem on group rides, though...
