Default Question y'all!

Hey guys. I have recently started riding my bike daily (not for super long periods of time, maybe just an hour or two) and I think it would be fun to get into some kind of club or something. Now, I don't have a road bike yet, but hopefully will be getting one soon....and I just really want to know if there is a level I should be before joining a club, or whatever.

Your best bet would be to ask around at the LBS and see what kind of group rides are offered. Get in on some of those to find out how you ride with others and how your pace is compared to the group. Then look into teams and find one that suits your abilities. Good Luck!
