They go a minimum of 40miles and up. Just check their garmin above. What is the mileage of the ride normally? I guess I need to train more on my own till I can join them. Any other road group rides I can look into? Hey Brian nice to hear from you again. Nice ave speed you got on your solo ride. Don't worry about getting drop as I myself and all the other orange machines started that way. Just show up there ride with the 8am group, normally the first 10 miles is relatively easy. If you get drop just ride ride it back to triangle by yourself, I did that a million times before. ;D ;D In that way you can always gauge yourself everytime you ride with them. Levi was right that knowing the terrain is also a big help, the uphills, the downhills and so on. Normally we ride about 50+ miles, you can check in the tgr Subject we have a lot of garmin data there. Good luck! |

Brian, if you could keep the avg for 50 miles you're good to go, if no it's worth getting drop a few times, like Erwin said, it happened to all of us at the beginning.

It was a nice day to ride, headwind going to the wall and tail wind on my way back.  @brian here's my garmin link if you have a garmin computer connect.garmin.com/activity/102349041 You can just download the map, send to device and follow the map. I think the wall is by exit 43 or 44 of LIE and horace harding. You can scroll on my previous rides and you will find maps from tgr 8am, tgr 8:30 am to Bear Mountain rides. You can race me virtually if you have the garmin comp. ;D ;D Btw a word of warning, i think its not a good idea for you to come on Thursday night TGR. ;D ;D Just a friendly advice ;D ;D. Good luck man and train hard. As you can see on BigB's message, there was a wink. ;D ;D |

Ok this is from my house down to little neck pkwy to the wall and back. I put BB's route in my garmin I was following the route into old westbury college but the gate was closed so I just made my ride short, so I can do some mileage at TV and SW now. Best of both worlds. I'm going to be a little tired for some XCing but I'm trying to get the saddle time in. I wish I can do the TGR ride tomorrow but I'm riding with Peak tomorrow because I promised a few friends and my girlfriend I would take them. Attachments:

You could have join me and Paul today 8am tgr, we did about 48 or so miles from the triangle. I have almost 59 miles b/c I rode from home, anyway maybe next week you can join us. FYI theres also a tgr tomorrow but I won't be able to do it, you can try and ride with them and just have a feel of how they ride. Today there was about 30 riders or so, good luck and ride safe. |

"Bato bato sa langit tamaan wag magalit" ;D ;D Seriously 52 i'm just a little disappointed with some of the people here. I know that competition is very strong in this group but lets just stop the jealousy. If you got beaten then you got beaten, let's stop assuming things. One of our members here which happen to be my beast friend, sent me a text message that i'm selfish and not sharing it. lol! Come on man! just train harder! ;D ;D It's not the mojito, it's how you train.  I don't give a S H I T what you guys are putting in your body. Sorry guys that I said those words but I don't do drugs or dope in any sort, so I have nothing to share to you. What I can share is my mileage and my energy drink. I'm ready to switch teams ;D ;D ECG? or blue bullets or EKG. hahahaha or maybe team cunningham. ;D ;D |
