I've been riding with the same group since '96. It's a lot smaller now but we're still at it. It's a riding group which emphasizes the social aspect, riding anything between 30 and 150 miles, though now we're staying below 50 for most rides. There's always a coffee stop and then food and beer after, though not everyone participates in the post-ride celebration. One of the interesting things has been the "Peyton Flock" aspect with some couples making it permanent. The coffee stop and post-ride rather helped that along. It's been a lot of fun and a focus for many of us. We're a much smaller group now. Not everyone apparently cared that it's ride or decay as it does get harder with age. Anyway, there can be more to it than just a coffee stop, though I would note that we talk best with our bikes.
