Bikes- 2 carbon Bianchi's, a few alloy frames road bikes, some hybreds, one recumbent,and a chesini converted to a townie.
Our pace out was very relaxed-I never used the brakes so much- Nelli was busting with energy and had to hold back as she had to stay behind the group leader.
In fact, beyond the beliefs of the organizers, she was at the front of the group the entire journey.
Very nice. We need more group rides like yours over here. When you first mentioned a group ride I envisioned a hammerfest.
