I don't know about Reading, but down the road from you a ways is an organized ride in August, the Lancaster Covered Bridges Metric Century... Someone who rides that may know about things in your neck of the woods.
Check it out in the Northeast regional forum. And try to make the Covered Bridge ride... A group from Bikeforums meets up there every year, there is a thread in the Northeast regional forum with info.

I'm sure your local LBS or the Lancaster Bike Club can steer you in the right direction.

Brandywine Bicycle Club, in West Chester, organizes lots of rides in the western suburbs. And a bike 'club' is forming in Phoenixville - the Firebird Bicycle Club has informal Saturday and Sunday morning rides. In fact, they had a small 25 mile ride in Pottstown this morning from Memorial Park. I missed it, unfortunately.
