Joined a Bicycling Group

I thought I was in shape--damn!  I really had to push to keep up with those people.  It was a 22.5 mile ride (after I rode 12 miles to get up there).  After the first 5 miles of the ride, I felt like I was going to die; my muscles ached so bad, but then a rest stop and I caught a second wind.  Today I feel fantastic.  Gonna ride with that group twice a week.
