Agreed ! Worth the 5 minute read (and 'pondering'). And let me express my thanks to all the seasoned Gyro's from whom I've pretty much picked up everything I know about cycling (scary thought, huh). I still remember my first gyro group ride about 10yrs ago when I showed up in a borrowed steel bike with down tube shifters in regular gym shorts and tennis shoes for a 50mi ride with 1 water bottle, cracking up and not being able to hang on the last 10 miles (unfortunenately, not much different than today!), and Dennis G. chivalrously agreeing to hang back while the group went on to shepard the "newbie" back home. Let me also recommend Andy's Wed night ride for those that can hang with the posted speed. You can pick up a lot of group riding skills if you are willing to listen and learn. See ya'll on the road, Kevin
