No telling how easy finding someone who rides at your speed might be, though. It took me from 1974 until 2010, riding at least one century almost every one of those years and 6 or 7 the past 2 years, for me to find someone who was riding at the same speed I was for more than 0.3 mi mi or so on a 100 mi or longer ride. I'd totally given up on the idea and never expected it to ever happen. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
