Their district is highways and forest roads, their pace is murderous, their opponents are fast cyclists and bikers. Cycling party men and women work day and night to protect our bikes ... 
Oh no .. I'm talking !! 
The cycling party is cool. At least that's what I was told, so I wanted to try. I've never ridden in a group of more than three people, let alone knowing no one. Today was planned a route with a length of about 30 km, which can handle recreational cyclists and I have traveled a little this year, so I sign up and go to the first meeting with a team of teams ..
First meeting with a cycling group with an instructor
I agreed in advance with another cyclist that we will meet sooner and we will go to the meeting together. I saw him for the first time. 
But I think that talking along the way will not hurt. I'm taking my new ones for a trip biker pants from Sensor. Until then, I was driving in Decathlon for 350.- crowns, so I want to try what it does to have something better. The planned 30 km trip will be enough for me to compare .. 
it is not unnecessarily said that we are not so rich to buy cheap things. 
We arrive on time in time. Somehow everyone introduced themselves. No one seemed to know what was pleasing, because I was afraid I would be there as a newcomer.
Instructor Míra immediately took the floor. We get on and go. Along the way I spoke a few words with almost everyone. There were 12 cyclists at the meeting, three of them nice girls, so I circled them all gradually. To my surprise, everyone was cool, cheerful and communicative. And we just started.
Everyone laughs. That's how I imagined it ...
Climbing uphill - direction Radyně
The trip went smoothly. Asphalt, mostly dirt roads and then began to climb through the forest. Exactly at the moment when I complain to my "colleague" that there are no hills yet, so we ran into one .. 
I was a little worried that I would not prosecute, but Instructor Míra knows what he's doing. He set the pace so that everyone would give it. The result was that we weren't wandering, but it wasn't a race either. I didn't believe it was possible with a larger group. Guys know .. Míra did not forget to warn us that no one should overtake him, because then he has a tendency to race. I think the "warning" was impressive, because he still went first .. 
In the middle of the journey we take a break for beer and kofola. Everyone talked to everyone even though they didn't know each other. The atmosphere was good. Originally I wanted to try only one ride, but here I confirmed that it was definitely not the last ..

We drink, milk and head home. Talks were ongoing among everyone. Ladies, do you have problems with guys that aren't communicative ??? It won't happen to cyclists in this group. I thought only I had a big mouth, but here I was just the second league ..
Cool photo on the bridge ..
And then one more goodbye ...
My impressions of the bike trip
Come on ... I originally went on a trip to test new ones cycling shorts, and I "took" two new friends from there. Biker shorts served their purpose. In addition, I like that the insole is removable and I can use the "fur" for long sports shorts and I can wear the pants themselves just as I wear them (to the city, to the Zoo, on hiking trips, etc.).
.If this is a standard cycling party with an instructor, I don't understand why I haven't tried it before. I would describe the positives as follows:
- Relaxing pace that suits everyone
- Professionalism of charismatic instructors, which is also fun
- Continuous explanation of riding techniques for less experienced cyclists
- Regular rides for ladies
So if you are a cheerful person, then join. On the next trip we meet, talk, ride and especially ... WILL BE FUN!!!
