Hi Cindy!

There are a bunch of us over here in the DC Metro area. Feel free to hit us up in the Mid-Atlantic region of the board.

I am on the Babes' listserv but all their rides are during the day which isn't the most convenient for those of us that work during those hours. It sounds like they may be perfect for you though.

I've considered the Potomac Pedalers group as well but have not yet joined a ride with them. A friend of mine has tried a couple of the more leisurely rides but did not feel the camaraderie I guess he was looking for. That shouldn't keep you from joining them and seeing if they are the group for you.

I had a great intro to group rides last year when I joined the VeloDCity Meetup group and did at least 2 with them last year. Here's the link: http://bike.meetup.com/133/. They are a great bunch of people and not too intimidating.

Welcome to TE!
