    It would be courteous of your "dear"H to accompany you on your first group outing and stick with you.
    It's a little secret you didn't know about us women. We're all closet Visigoths.

    Try to ride 'predictably' -- in a straight line, without swerving. Call out "Stopping" if you're stopping, "slowing" if you're slowing. Point out obstacles, smile at everyone, and have a blast!

    At the bottom of this page: http://www.sorellacycling.com/calendar.htm is a great document we put together on group riding skills. (One of the crashes mentioned in the intro was mine...)
