RIDE CHANGES
If you’re wondering if a ride is still happening in the pouring rain, or whether a new ride has been scheduled for a beautiful day, check out the “Ride Changes” section of our website.

This page is a great resource for last-minute happenings. Page down through the entries because sometimes new rides can get buried a bit.  Contact webmaster@bikesclub.org if you’d like to post something on the page

Use this chart and the ride description to determine if a particular ride is right for you. Don’t take on 50 miles when you haven’t done 20, but don’t be afraid to start out with us on a 20-30 mile ride if your butt and legs have handled 15.
