The purpose of this group is for Softride owners to get together to
ride, share knowledge and general information. As we know, Softride
Bikes are most likely the least accepted and most ridiculed bicycle out
there. While we do often gather interest from other riders, many
purists and cycling organizations will hold a hand up to stop us from
participating in events if possible.
The big misconception among cyclists is that Softride's are for Tri
events only. Nothing could be farther from the truth. Those that have
never riden a Softride on a long bike tour will never know the pleasure
of a back or butt that doesn't ache after such a ride. Though Softride
is out of the Mountain Bike market (for now), I still ride a Softride
Mountain Bike and I love it.
Most events that I have particapated in are barren of Softride's except
for mine. Perhaps other Softride owners do not know of these events or
don't wish to ride alone. That doesn't have to be any longer.
Although this comes from the lowly state of New Jersey, I'm sure this
can be
an outlet for Softride owners everywhere as a place to hook up with
other owners
and ride.
Let's be seen and let's get together and ride.
