Tuesday Night Worlds
Tuesday Night Worlds is the fastest group ride offered by my club. The "Worlds" part of Tuesday Night Worlds means world championships. While this ride isn't actually the world champs of course, it sure does feel like it. The ride is basically a race. People are trying to get to the finish first, just like they would in a race. Tuesday Night Worlds, or TNW for short, is a great way to get in shape. A local pro cyclist, Ben King, gained his initial fitness and love for riding when he was 15 and doing TNW. TNW starts in March, and goes on until daylight savings time starts. (Around November) I just started doing TNW, and it's as hard as everyone says it is. I ride in the "A" Group and it is as fast as a full blown race. I can hang on to the group for most of it, but I get dropped on the last hill pretty often. I'm already seeing improvements after going to TNW and I'm sure that I'll continue to see them as the year goes on. TNW happens every Tuesday, which makes it easy to try things out. TNW has been around for generations. My dad, when he was a racer, also used TNW to get in shape. It's a lot of fun and a great ride that super helpful for everyone.
