I did my first group ride yesterday.........by myself I do 30 miles at 22mph.......we did thirty miles yesterday and for the first 15 were at about 24mph (nice to draft and do a pace line) then they kicked and for about 2 miles I was able to keep it at 34mph (real slow slope down hill) untill we took a tight corner and I lost the pack......without being able to draft I got dropped and finished the last 13 miles at about 22mph by my self.....a group ride is very different, but very fun! Give it a try!
