Interested in cycling, but not sure where to start? Or are you tired of going on rides by yourself? Are you intimidated by the Lance Armstrong wannabes that are smoking past you with those tight black bottom spandex and thick calve muscles? Well have we got the group for you! If you are new to cycling or if you are a veteran of cycling we invite you to gather for weekend ride/course planning, gear talk, training tips, social outings, etc.!
Our purpose is to gear up, get on, get out, and get going, chase the wind and have fun! Who cares if the guys are faster than us, we just like to see their cool bike tights as they race by! Isn't that why we're here??
We encourage you to suggest rides and events to add to the calander!
So, come and meet new cycling friends.
Don't forget to check out our message board for the latest info.

With that said here are some basics: Show up at least 15 minutes before the ride start time, if the group is ready to depart on time they will do just that. Have a spare tube and pump to take with you on the ride even if you don't know how to use them. Finally, fully read the ride discriptions! Call the day before the ride if you need any help with equipment or questions about the route. As a "newbie" it will be an adjustment to ride with a group and we are here to help make it fun. As always, contact me directly if there are any concerns.

Going to move it earlier so we can get to the first winery when it opens at 11. That will give us plenty of time to hit all 4 places. I don't want to miss out on the Sake this time.

Well, I will be turning another year older.

I will be hosting a ride of 41 miles. We will be visiting several very cool places along the way. Read more

What members are saying

 Though there are some faster riders, most people ride an easy pace. And the faster riders were good about waiting for others.

 Look forward to another ride where we can meet more people.
