Hey all -
I did my first competitive ride on a bike yesterday as a relay team in the Atomic Man Tri. It was also my first time to ride more than 32 miles in one sitting, and I finished half an hour earlier than predicted. My bike time wasn't great, but as a newb, I was pleased. Well, I really want to do something like that again, but I'm having trouble finding a website that has event postings for the TN region. I'd like to do some charity rides to get a feel of a mass start ride, but I'm not ready for a century, which is what I mostly see. Any hints/tips? BTW, I would like to do a century at some point, so I'm not ruling it out.
Thanks,
Alex
