Thanks so much to everyone who answered my questions. You've been a terrific help!!
I perhaps ride the same rail trail you do, the NCR trail that originates in Ashland and travels to York, Pa.

I'm looking for others to ride with during the week after work .
I own a trail bike and a road bike and switch off and on depending on how I am feeling and who I might be lucky enough to ride with. I'm not fast, but I can hold my own . I do around 20 miiles or so.....but I'm working up to more after being sick with lyme disease for 2 years. Having a riding companion is definately a better way to go sometimes. As others have said.....it helps to pass the miles and also gives you some company and /or help when you get flat tires .
I'm always looking for riding partners.... so email me if you are interested.
