This was my first group ride. Jimmie met me in the driveway and we met Mark at the park adjacent to General Ice Cream.
There were quite a few riders and I was happy to stay at the back of the pack and observe the mechanics of group riding. Mark and Jimmie hammered down on Monclova Rd and I reminded myself that I was here to observe and learn even though I could have rode faster although what I take away most from this experience was how easy the ride was and how much faster I was biking.
Ergo, it was this thing called a "draft" that I had heard so much of during this past four months' madness.
It was a pretty cool thing!
