Tyler: They may average from 18 to 20 mph on most CoW rides but if you can solo 17.5 avg. you'll have no problem at the slightly faster pace because drafting saves you about 20% effort. You should fit right in.
No mountain bike needed!!! Some hammer rides such as the Wed. evening ride are a slightly bigger challenge as they may avg. 21+. tim On Apr 12, 4:20 pm, Tyler <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi folks, > > I'm not sure if I sent my first message to the right place.
