Hey there, I usually ride with Carrollton Cycling Club on Mon and Wed nights in Irving/Las Colinas. Monday night there is a no-drop ride but on Wednesday it is every cyclist for her/himself. Usually on Wednesday the big group breaks into smaller groups of varying speeds. I am usually in the group averaging 15-18 mph but that also depends on how windy it is (wind = Texas hills)! Come out on a Monday for the no-drop until you get to know the area (unless you already feel comforable with the area). The folks are very nice and Irving Bible Church is especially nice to allow us to park in the far side of their parking lot.

Richardson Bike Mart has some group rides as well. I've not ridden with them before, so have no idea what their rides are like.

Right now I'm preparing to ride in the Muenster Germanfest ride on April 28th in Muenster, TX. It is up north near Gainesville and a ton of fun, with rolling hills that we don't see much up here in North TX. After all the hills, you can stay for Germanfest and the wonderful food and not feel guilty about eating it!

I hope it's ok to post the links above - I have no relationship with any of the groups or store other than knowledge of them and the activities. I just wanna ride and have fun. - Jennifer
