Don't know exactly where on eastern shore you are, but you ought to take a look at Sussex Cyclists - a group in lower Sussex Cty, DE. We run small group rides almost every day mornings and evenings, and larger group rides every weekend. Our website has a good listing of all the organized rides on Delmarva peninsula, which covers a lot of ground.

It's a Yahoo group. You may have to "join" the group to see the calendar but it's easy to do and if you don't like what you see, you can "un-join" just as easily. Follow the prompts to see the calendar and ride descriptions. We have a nice ride tomorrow and if I could ever shake this bronchitis I'd be doing it myself, but I'm trying to get well so I can do the CAM ride.
The CAM (Cycle Across Maryland) ride is July 13-16. It's based in Princess Anne, MD and has 4 rides each day to different places varying from 17 miles to 75 (or more?) miles each day. See the website for more info. You can stay in the dormitory, sign up for a meal plan and there are lots of activities for the afternoon and evening hours. You can camp for free but the dorms have real beds, showers, and are air conditioned3 nights for $125.

If you want to join up with us for any of these rides let me know. I'm in the Bethany area.
