That is great, Az. When I was doing the semester long term sub job at my school, after I had quit, I led a ride for Bike to Work Week. I got about 5-6 people, all diverse, and we did an 8 mile ride. There is a really annoying short, but steepish hill right before you get back to the school, and they were ready to kill me. But, they were all mostly fit, just not people who ride a lot.
I am hoping to try and get something together for my clinic next month.
