    You'll do fine. I find the group rides are fun, you get into pace lines if you're game to try them. In general, you're out for a ride, and you're not riding alone. In general there are riders of all skill levels, from the elite to those that are completely happy to plod along. Also, I find repeating the same event year after year is even more fun as you get to know riders, volunteers, and event sponsors.

    I've done that ride before. It's a nice one. Good luck with it and let us know how it goes!
