Hi, Nate -

Have you had the chance to check out any of the Harrisburg Bike Club rides?

http://www.harrisburgbicycleclub.org/

I typically ride out of Hershey on Mondays and Thursdays at 6:00. You'll find B rides (15-17'ish AVERAGE), C+ (13-15 AVERAGE), and C rides.

Not knowing what pace you're comfortable with, I'd suggest you check out the website. Take at look at the newsletter archives; it will give you a complete list of all scheduled rides. Best place to begin meeting like-minded riders, and you'll get a lot of helpful information on the rides. . . all you have to do is ask :)
