Bigworm, thanks for the info. I've been riding/training solo for the past year and a half, only participating in groups when the various big rides come up (Space Race, Tour de Houston, etc). I'd like to get into racing this coming season, so I need to get the hang of group riding, and it sounds like this is a great place to start. I considered the Bike Barn on Westheimer, as that is where I shop, but think I'd rather do Katy because of the more open roads.
