— Marianne Biner on Jul 24, 2009.
“ I believe that riding in groups make a person push a little harder, back off the brake lever more, and learn from others talents and mistakes. This group is perfect for all of that---with no pressure. The group leader explains the difficulty level of technical spots before you get there, and gives you alternative routs. That alone makes it worth it to me. You don't get that when you ride alone or with a buddy in unfamiliar territory. I have bent rims and pulled spoke nipples through rims on my hardtail by hitting unexpected rock gardens while exploring. That would not have happened with this group. Furthermore, in a group, if you watch the guy ahead of you either ace an obstacle or blow it, you can amend you plan as to how you will tackle it. Learn from others without learning the hard way. ”
