Folks,

I live in San Martin and I am getting into bike riding for fitness and fun. I just bought a 2009 Giant Defy 1 that should be ready to pick up by middle of next week. I am a pretty good athlete but need to get back into shape and lose some weight. I don't do anything half way so I suspect I will really get into this sport.

Anyway, I need to find some people to ride with but I am not sure how to go about it. It would be great if the rides are in the south valley but I am willing to drive some too.

If there is anything about me you want to know or need to know, just ask!

Thanks,

S-

I believe there is a weekly ride from the Specialized Concept Store in Morgan Hill, saturday mornings. Call them or check their web site. Its a good place to start, then ask them for other suggestions. Welcome to a wonderful world of cycling.

I've been spending a lot of time in your neck of the woods lately; there are tons of bikes up in the hills around uvas / chesbro / calero reservoirs. check out ACTC http://actc.org who run a lot of group rides in the area.
