Id like to do some group riding. A lot of old cycling buddies dont ride any more so most of my rides are solo these days.

Im looking for group rides or clubs where a slow old guy wouldnt be getting dropped after 5 minutes. (I may be exagerating on the slow and old but Im not looking for something with a bunch or racers or wannabe racers). Id like to get some experience riding in a pack and meet some good people with a similar passion for biking.

If you recommend something, can you give a description of typical rides? Number of people, distance, and average pace?

Calgary Crankmasters is a good group to join if you just want to meet up for the weekly social group ride. All no-drop rides, ranging from 60-120km rides, all at good paced speeds (prolly just under 30kph)

... On that note though, we should get a beyond group ride going weekly. I ride with my team lots, but its good to see new faces and see new riders out there.
