Gee, thanks, guys. Now I just need someone in the Boston/southern NH area to see this and sign up!
We've done this for a few years and it's getting a little harder each year, as AMC is really reaching out to people who are total newbies, and a lot of them are from the city. Just coming to Concord for the workshop is a big deal. What riding means to them is totally different. I get it, believe me, but this makes a lot of the information overwhelming to them and sometimes they get defensive. But hey, I get to make my "no underwear" joke when talking about bike shorts, and then quickly follow it up by saying "you can ride in anything you want, but you need to be comfortable and not chafed."
