I am going to try and ride with the A group on Saturday and hold on as long as possible. The 18-19 pace sounds like it is more for me at this point in my conditioning.

Ed,
There is always a group that wants to start with us and break off to do a
shorter and slower ride. You will not be alone.

I was planning on joining the group and holding on as long as I
could. I would love this ride at 18-19.
