    I did the ride with NBW in North Scituate yesterday. The hills were kind of brutal. So much so that I had to drop 5 miles off the ride at the end and use the last bail out option. A crazy ride for...

    There is nothing inherently wrong with being tired after a ride. As the season progresses so will your fitness. I'm sure you already know that. Keep enjoying your biking and running.

    Nice. Ride like a piston. Simply keep the legs moving slow and steady. Eventually you get to the end. Probably not first but we always get there.

    I'm one who really doesn't pay any attention to warmup. Keeping it simple and just letting things happen as they may is my type of riding. Sometimes fast, sometimes not so fast. There is never a...

    Wouldn't it be nice if he got hooked on riding and started doing regular rides with you. Maybe even a week long tour. BTW I noticed you ride a Felt. Me too.

    I rode with this group in 2009 and can say they definitely take care of the riders without being intrusive. It's a good way to tour if you don't want to go alone or can't find a couple of friends to...

    Good stuff as usual. I don't think some here realize how long you have been riding. Years of this makes one a professional and very good at what they do.
