I am new to town and the group, and am looking to join for the first time tomorrow AM. Hard to know which group/ride to join, but I hail from Boone and am no stranger to long rides, but hard to discern my pace here as I ordinarily ride gravel with a lot more grade. I usually ride about 14-15 mph if I am riding hard when riding the "Appalachian Standard" (~1000ft/10mi). I'm looking to join for some longer endurance rides this Fall/Winter and am looking for a group that I can keep up with without getting killed.

Any advice is greatly appreciated! I'll be riding a tan Canyon with a blue Boone Bike jersey. Look forward to meeting folks!

Hi Chris, 

Glad you're joining us!  Numbers will probably be down tomorrow since there's an MS ride, so group choice may be less.  Average in GSO is around 4200-4300ft/10 mil), minus gravel penalty would make 14-15 at least 19-20, by my guess.  We occasionally have "A+" groups going 21+, then A- groups looking for 20 (although a recent ride went 21), then B at 18-19, then C and D, which would probably be too slow for you.  I can't imagine B would be too difficult, and I expect you'd be fine at A-.  I'll look for you tomorrow (I'll have a solid blue jersey and titanium bike).  If you want to start with a faster group, there's always the option of falling off and waiting for the group behind, or changing groups at the store stop.  

Best,
Scott

Chris,

Scott meant 420 feet per ten miles. 😀

Thanks all for the beta. In my infinite wisdom, I left my helmet and computer in my girlfriends car in Chapel Hill. Looks like I'll be riding over there today instead. I'll see you all soon enough. Thanks again.
