MS Ride questions?
Howdy - I'm mostly a solo cyclist and have been thinking about joining the MS ride, the shortest one. I ride multiple times per week with usually a longer 30-40 mile ride 1x week usually about 13-15mph, so I think I could handle it physically, but really haven't done a lot of group rides. Have had the MS ride in my scopes for a few years now since my best friend was diagnosed with MS and we usually do the walk together - but felt like I wasn't physically able to do it the ride until now.
Before I sign up, I guess I'm curious if anyone has any additional thoughts I should consider before joining in? Like, should I try to join some group rides or work on getting faster and wait til next year? I do have a road bike and it's my primary ride. I think I'm mostly concerned about keeping up, interacting with other cyclists, and possibly getting too hot. Thanks!
