Bob Appolito has been telling me for years that Joe Brown and his crew do an excellent job with their ride. While not the biggest ride in the area, they care about every rider and want to make sure that their ride gets better every year. They start rolling out the 100 mile riders at 7am, with the 80, 62, 42, 25 and 8 milers departing later.

What do you focus on when you ride? Speed? Cadence? Power? Heart rate? The wheel in front of you? If you are still searching for a "good ride", try this: The next time you ride, go on your own. Ride your own rhythm and at a pace that allows you to enjoy the ride. Focus on the process of riding - breathing, pedaling, shifting gears to stay in rhythm, eating, drinking and staying relaxed in the saddle. When you discover the balance between effort and ease, you will find a whole new way of riding.
