I like riding on my own (I dont have any choice up my way) but the times I get to ride with the lovely ladies (and their partners) from TE are fabulous. These rides really encompass all the things I like. I get a good workout (these girls are strong and make me ride harder), I get fabulous company and I get to see some beautiful parts of the USA. Oops I nearly forgot - I get to eat lots of yummy food at the end.
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
