Someone pointed out that perhaps I had made the 5PM TUE Amica's Group Ride sound a little too intimidating. To clarify, this is a spirited ride, and some (not all) riders may take off at certain points offering a little friendly competition. We try to regroup by slowing down and waiting for each other, or flipping it on an out and back route. As a matter of fact, we often choose routes that flip back in order to pick people up, and there is usually plenty of flat road that allows a large group to stay together in the draft. We have been attracting a group of co-ed cyclists of varying speed. We all ride together very nicely. There are plenty of sections where talking and social banter take precedence. Please come out and give the ride a try. It is a fun group of enthusiastic cyclists who are interested in a ride that builds strength and fitness.

To clarify, this ride leaves from Amica's at 5PM every Tuesday evening. Amica's is our main sponsor located at 136 E 2nd St in Salida. We have been allowing 5 minutes for late comers, but we have been leaving fairly promptly (unlike years past). It looks like it will be a beautiful day to ride this Tuesday. I hope to see you there.
