And, you lurkers! I encourage you to post because you'll make some fabulous friends. Because I spoke up my circle of friends grew from hubby only to a whole bunch of TE women and their partners. Now, how cool is that?
What SK says is so true. Without TE I wouldnt have met such an amazing bunch of women. When I first joined TE I was a recent arrival to the USA and brand new to cycling. I did all of my cycling alone and knew nothing. Some of the great women here in Northern California encouraged me to try an organized ride and I was hooked. Since then I have met many wonderful women from TE and their partners and spent glorious days cycling with them. Without this open arm welcome from the ladies here I would still be cycling alone 100 percent of the time and my number of friends would be cut in half.

They have enriched my life and when I eventually leave the USA I will take home many memories of this beautiful country but the ones most dear will be my time cycling with my mates here in the USA.
