Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Newbie Question

I just started Biking and have purchased a Giant Cypress SL. I would like to get into Group Riding, but am concerned about keeping up as well as disrupting the group. How does one go about joining these groups and do they generally make newbies feel welcomed

Normally there will be rides leaving from local shops. Someone at the shop can tell you about the ability level of the rides. That's a good place to start.
