Not a strictly east coast disease- crazy fast and furious rides exist here in SoCal. Simi rise anyone?

I won't do our Tuesday night ride even when fit and I am a plenty descent sprinter. Bad roads mixed with dubious riding is not a thrill for me now that I am in the over 40 club

Yeah, I'm indulging in nostalgia. I'm too old (and considerate) to ride like that anymore. LOL.

Couple more group rides, someone will make a pinhead move, and you'll be "F* this" and done with it for another year or so 'til the memory fades.

@roadbuzz True dat! LOL. I go to Walmart about once a year. Same thing. Except it's not a pinhead move, but just the overwhelming combination of humanity and rank consumerism.

the same thing could be said about a group ride.

No Doubt! I was bitching about the route the next day with the guy who invited me. Riding through neighborhoods with parked cars on both sides of the street, 4 way stop signs all over the place with bad sight lines...I was thinking the whole time, "he invited me out for THIS???"

Perhaps find a different ride?

I go on roads marked as "bike friendly" and say Nope, Nope, Nope!
