You'll recover chicken little! Riding with better riders is soooo good for you. You'll learn skills from them, and they will push you so that you test your limits (I guess you figured that one out today!). You'll only get better by pushing yourself, so a little suffering is a good thing. Ride with them a few more times, and you'll find it getting easier and easier! Pretty soon riding with them won't be a challenge, and you'll be looking for even faster riders to ride with!!

Take it easy today. Eat well, take a nap, and enjoy The Sound of Music!
