Hi Everyone please welcome Mike to our group
I purchased a Trek 2.3 and have thoroughly enjoyed my rides. I typically do 10
to 20 miles during the weekdays and 30+ on the weekends.
I've never ridden with a group and I'm afraid my pace on my long rides is only
about 15.5 mph measured with a Garmin Edge 500. We have a place at Atlantic
Beach and that's where I typically ride on the weekends. I'm a little more
comfortable riding at Atlantic Beach as the road between Atlantic Beach and
Emerald Isle has a rather wide bike lane and the vehicles rarely exceed 45mph
and are usually courteous toward bikers and give us plenty of room.
I live in the Wilson Country Club and my rides here typically take me down 58.
I've had several tense moments in Wilson with cars getting a little close and
an
incident where a passing vehicle threw a full soft drink bottle at me as they
flew by. So, I'm not as comfortable riding in Wilson as I am at the coast.
But, I'm sure there are safer bike routes. I check mapmyride.com often to look
at some of the other routes Wilson cyclists are taking.
I had no idea there was such a dedicated group of cyclists in Wilson.
Thanks
Mike
