Tin - I honestly would love to as I'm also a beginner and a member of the Westchester Cycle Club (though I have yet to go on a group ride). However, I really can't commit to much to anything right now with this crazy, crazy job that I have which is taking up almost all my time lately and my crazy kids. If I end up signing up for the golden apple, I'll definitely PM you. One of these days I will sign up for one of their "D" rides and I'll be the girl in the pink/black Ruby who can barely do 12 mph!
