BUT, if anyone is in Annapolis, MD or the surrounding area, please hit me up. I have no one to ride with at the moment...
RMM if yer on FaceBook, that's the best place to find riding groups. I'm in CT-MA, and I belong to 3.
Within those groups, there is a ride every weekend it seems. This place is your best bet for technical upgrades, but not so much local gatherings.
National gatherings.....this is the place!!
