Is that 14.8 under your own power or in a group? I ended up linking up with folks for big chunks of RAIN , and of course a paceline sticks another 2 or 3 mph onto your speed. I'm fortunate in that we have a Tuesday Tour that goes long miles at 14-15... and I learned how to do the paceline thing at those speeds, with just a few people in sort of a "low-key" way before I ever got on speedier ones.
Let me know please when you plan to ride it next and tell me so I can benefit from your tail-wind wielding powers also! If it's a one way ride, how do you get back to the start?

That 14.8 is by myself. I'd like to ride with others, I'm just not sure how to hook up. Seems like all the folks I see in pacelines and groups all have road bikes and are going much faster than lonely ole' me on my hybrid.
