The only dessert I am making is sugar free jello with fruit in it.

I rode one time with the bike club from the gym. It was interesting to ride with serious amateurs, and I was proud of the fact I kept up with guys, and women, who compete in triathlons and other events... But. It was too organized for me, set route, timetable, led and chase riders to watch out for safety issues, timed breaks.

Not saying all groups would be like that. But it put constraints on the freedom I feel when I ride. I just prefer to do my own thing.
