Drives Ride

I did the drives ride this week, not really meeting up with anyone in particular, but I ran in to Woody and Dan, Ashley D., and a handful of others. Woody and I discussed ways we could save the Philly International Pro Race. Fortunately, they didn't need our help.
I realized that, while it is a good workout, the benefits (hard effort, race pace, ?) don't outweigh the negatives (too big a group, lack of competitiveness, sketchiness, guaranteed crash, etc) for me on that ride. The AM sprint workout is harder, more race like, and even more competitive, for a more all around effort. And the smaller groups means there's no hiding.
