    Yup, I'm talking about the Tour De Tahoe...hopefully I have good enough skills to avoid other non-skilled riders. What I'm more concerned about is doing something stupid and taking someone else out! Good reason for me to definitely work on the starting and stopping. Grassy lawn, here I come!
    Dont be scared. You will have a blast but its good to remember that your bike skills may be a lot better than some of the riders there. This way you are ready to expect the unexpected if they do something daft.

    Let me know what jersey you will be wearing and I will keep an eye out for you. LOL if you are speedy though I probably wont see you as I am a bit of a snail.
    The most effective way to do it, is to do it.

    Good for you!!! Like you I may not be the most experienced but I love riding my bike and how else can we learn other than to keep riding.

    Good luck on your Tour de Tahoe!!! Have fun, I do organized charity rides as often as I can and love them. I just stay away from the pack so I don't have to worry about crashing or being crashed into.
