Hi Theresa and Barbara,

I started riding in April, but so far it has just been with 1 or 2 other riders. Tonight is my first group ride/cookout ... I'm taking the baked beans!! I've done a few trail days w/this group and worked the fast laps race they did in May, but my rides have been just me and a mentor or two.

I'm very excited but a slow rider, so I will just start at the back of the pack to begin with. My second group ride is Friday, which is suppose to be a night ride, but I'll go early to finish in daylight w/a couple others. I don't think I'm ready to tackle nights! The park naturalist is gonna do a 'lecture' on "flyers at night" (the birds and bats) and I'm sure other critters. So after a daylight ride, I'll listen and learn about the critters.

I'm in Columbus, Ohio, but will be riding over by Springfield an hours drive.
