A few days ago I posted a thread asking for tips and advice for my first group ride and I just wanted to report my experience.

In a short summary it was blast, never had I experienced so much pain from doing rolling hills and trying to keep up with the guys, every single second I had to hammer the crank to not fall behind with my legs burning, I loved every single second of it. Eventually I feel too far behind but one of the guys stayed with me which was awesome. I learned a lot of the hand signals that they use and other etiquette.

Thanks for everyone who posted in the previous thread, much appreciated
