Wednesday Rides and Allamucy

Hi, 

I've never done one of the group rides but was thinking about it.  I've been to Salis a bunch but have never been to Emmaus. I read Emmaus is a little tougher than Salis, so that's kinda good.... not that it needs to be. I do like the brutality of Salis.  I'm just wondering if I should go on my own or join in on the wednesday group ride.  If I do a group ride with friends, I typically like to be in smaller groups... they keep moving and are less cumbersome. 

ALso, I may have been told that Allamucy is tough to navigate on your own.  It's another place that I've never been to but want to check out.  Anyone here willing to take me around some good trails on a weekend? 

THanks!
