It's the only 718 ride I've done, so I'm no expert, but it was really great. Joe was prepared but laid back, the group was convivial and diverse, and there was no pressure to go fast or slow. When my friend took a spill, everyone had bandaids for him and no-one had unwanted advice, that warmed my heart. And many people brought food and beer to share. So if it's any indication of a normal ride with them I'd say do it!
Also going to take Joe's advice and get a 12-36 and XT derailer in the short term, and save up for a beautiful new double crankset in the long term.

Makes it much harder to just sneak in a ride. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
