I'm in the Houston area and I've taken to riding the MS150 the last
couple of years. I ride with the Rocket Sprockets team for the MS,
but that team doesn't really do any other rides on an organized basis.

I'm looking for some training partners in Houston. My next "T-shirt
ride" won't be until October (I'm scheduled to do the Ride for the
Roses), but I'd really like to hook up with a group of regulars--
ideally folks who are at a decent level but not the real
hammerheads. I add the last caveat just because I don't want to be
holding back a group of strong riders.

Anyone who's done a substantial ride knows how difficult it can be to
get motivated to train. That's worse when you don't have dedicated
training partners. If anyone is interested, I just joined this
group, and my email is on my profile.
