Narragansett Bay Wheelmen does lots of group rides in the area and has a great Century Ride (TFCE) in September. Check out their website for lists of rides and dates.
I have never ridden with them but see groups out and about when I am riding.
I have done TFCE and it is a well organized event

Thanks for the info on NBW. Everyone has been so helpful here.

AMC does not have a lot of drama. The rides are fun and social. They require a leader and sweep and no one gets left behind. The "beginner" level rides are generally at an average of 10-12 mph and the intermediate rides are about a 14-15.5 average, but can include lots of miles and/or big climbs. There is a guy named Joe Tavilla that leads rides for the SE MA chapter, on the Cape. His rides are very friendly; he belongs to both clubs I listed and I have ridden with him a few times.

As Biciclista said, sometimes you just have to hold your breath and jump in ... I just don't want to experience another ride like my last. I had the accident, but may have had less of a chance of having an accident had I not been left behind. I don't want to mention the group's name because I'm not here to slander any one particular group, however I am trying to 'feel' my way around to find a group that will 'fit' my interests and share my interests.

Thanks for the info about AMC, I think I'll look them up and try to meet up with them hopefully soon when my hand heals and it is safe to ride again.
