Thanks I could not have replied better....Don’t wanna speak for @mike_243 but from my experience, distance is dictated by A) the available light. B) the speed of the group. C) weather. These are true “no drop“ rides. They only go as fast as the slowest rider and no one will ever pressure anyone into going faster that they can or ride anything beyond their ability. So to answer the other question, your friend will be fine.
Well then the 4th is the next Tuesday night ride come on out for the fun....I'm in though tomorrow looks to be a washout(50% chance of rain in the afternoon/evening).
Well as of now we are a maybe Looks closer to a wash out givin the rain we got early this morning.....Guess for tomorrow we will have to play it by ear with the weather. Still in as long as there is no storms.
