Took yesterday off to rest, can't wait to get back out today. The trail ride should be something, last year 1144 riders signed up.

Welcome to BF and to the 50+ group. You must live in the Tampa Bay area. I am doing the Miles for Hope ride in Clearwater this coming Saturday (9/24) and was planning on doing the Rails To Trails ride as well. Unfortunately, we had to take a Sunday (10/2) flight back to Tampa for our vacation and won't be able to do that ride. I think you will really enjoy the ride. Remember to just ride at your pace and don't push yourself. It's not a race and your goal is to finish. Good luck with the ride and maybe some day we can meet and do a ride together.
