Thanks for some ideas. The car show is in York,m we are just staying in Harrisburg, and I have went to quite a few shows in both Carlisle and Hershey. I commute to work when winter is finally over, 20 miles roundtrip. I always ride alone, so I don't really know how my ability compares to others. It takes about 40 mins to go 10 miles on bikepath, and some highway to work. I feel great when I get to work. I ride a mountain bike for the comfort, have smooth tires on. I did my first century last July in the middle of our hot summer (89 degrees that day), a solo effort, in beautiful Prince Edward County in Southern Ontario. It would be great to ride with some other ladies for a change! paintgirl
