About us
Colorado Springs Cycling (CSC) is a non-profit organization founded in 1987 to provide a variety of bicycling activities. We have weekly rides, annual rides, member meetings with educational topics and parties, and training. For non-club rides such as Elephant Rock, we use Meetup to let our members know who is planning to attend so they can carpool and possibly ride together.
If you are not yet a member of CSC, we invite you to join us for one ride. If you have a good time and want to ride with us more, you can visit our website to join the club. Annual dues are $30 for an individual or $50 for a family.

Wednesday Morning Ride
Legacy Loop Plaza, 1800 Recreation Way, Colorado Springs, co, USNewcomers are always welcomed for the first ride without paying CSC membership dues. You will be asked to join the CSC if you participate on a second CSC ride. You can join the CSC at https://bikesprings.org/join-us
ROUTE: https://ridewithgps.com/routes/55253382
Today’s route will be 27.2 miles with 2,244’ of climbing. (However, for those who wish to cut out some of the elevation, there will be two opportunities to easily meet back up with the group while avoiding the climbs.) Starting at Legacy Plaza we will make our way south to the bridge that crosses over the interstate. Once on the west side of the freeway, we will head south to Boulder Street and then climb up Manitou Avenue into OCC. After heading north on 30th street we will turn onto King Street and climb up to Mesa where we will continue climbing until we get to the Garden of the Gods overlook. We’ll take a short break at the Loaf n Jug before climbing up Flying W, Allegheny, and Woodmen. The remainder of the route is a decent to Criterium Bikes and finally along the Pikes Peak Greenway Trail back to our starting point.
The Wednesday Morning Ride is an intermediate (12-14 mph avg.) no-drop ride with catch-up points along the route. There may be a planned rest stop along the route, and we will have a “sweep” and will regroup as necessary to ensure no rider is left behind. The ride leader will publish a Ride with GPS link to the route the weekend before the ride with a start location. You can download a free version of the app from your phones app store.
We will ride 18-30 miles depending on weather and road conditions. Unless noted, we will leave from Legacy Plaza off the I-25 and Centennial exit and ride in different directions each week.
Please arrive early enough to check your bikes ABC’s (air, brakes, chain) so we can roll out on time. Helmets must be worn whenever you are riding the bike.
If you plan to ride, please RSVP to let the ride leader and others know you will be there.
NOTE: With uncertain weather patterns, this ride may become a “show-n-go”. The leader will update the Meetup event as soon as possible. The group that does show agrees where to go together. Be prepared with a sign-sheet. Instructions for where to send it after the ride are at the bottom of the first page.
