This was my first road ride. Here is the crowd that went. The ride was fairly short, about 30 miles, mostly flats, with a little bit of mild climbing up the same canyon we went up to get to the Herd Hollow ride. I received instruction on drafting and proper riding etiquette.

To the left is the trail head. It the road in front of the house. The rest of the trail looked just like it, all asphalt.

I still have some adjustment to make on the bike but it worked well for me. Not that I have anything to compare it to.
