Levi, I know the first one that I joined was the Brands ride. I don't know but for me the best free road riding that you can get is the triangle group ride every weekends. I mean every ride that you do there, they alway push you to your limits. And I think it's really good for your training and improvement wise. Even if you get drop at this Trg rides, at least you know that you did your best just to keep up with them. And also it's very close to my house, I just ride my bike there joined them. Trg rides usually finishes before noon or noon. So I stil have plenty of time for the day. But don't get me wrong I will join you guys next time and it's fun riding with the tribe all the time. I mean machines. Lol!
