I would host group rides of 15ish on the weekends, with help from this site. People would show up and then get on the website and talk so much about everyone, from how they rode, what they wore, how the ride was organized, how everyone should and shouldn't ride, etc...admin would allow it, even after talking with them, which led me to leave 9 years ago. I came back hoping for a change this time.

No one wants to ever address the problem, but we all know what it is, because that is the reason why the website is what it is now. People want to control every aspect of a ride, yet "invite" free will people on that same ride?

There will always be someone on here that has to comment about something negative instead of the positive. Can't imagine those people exist here...Don't like how people ride, don't show up. Don't like how someone is dressed for the ride, don't show up. I never put rides together to advocate for another rider to be unsafe, yet I can't control the other person. Positivity is what we push for on our rides, and if that is what you are looking for, come on...else, continue to be the reason this website is dead. Let's ride, positively...together, educated and helping all other riders, so we can all enjoy 2 wheels while we can! Ride on!

I must have started rides after you left. We have great people in our group. Very well behaved. We dont tell people how to ride but we do make suggestions for there safety and ours. If you’re still riding you’re welcome to join us and see if its for you.

Waller is a trek for me, no doubt. Making riding suggestions is great and is one thing, but when people go behind your back and talk all that bs on here about a ride they participated in, that is another. Good to see you are riding and hosting. Hope to do the same. If you ever ride closer to the houston/baytown area, I am def in...thanks for the invite!

When i first joined i understood what you meant. Lots of trash talk amungst a select group. I think they have all moved on now. As far as i know our rides arent talked about at least not here…lol
We mainly stay on the West side since all the curvy roads are out here. If you get a chance join us. Yoi can trailer or put in on a truck if needed. We are happy to help you unload.
