Rocky Mountain Cycling Club RMCC

This ride starts at South High School. We do roughly 90 mins of spirited riding averaging ~20 MPH. We do our best to keep the group together but will press on if someone falls too far behind. There are 1-2 regroups for people to catch up. We rotate each week’s route. This week we will be going North. Hope to see you there.

Thursday, Thursday, RMCC Climbing Thursday!

Join us for the RMCC tradition on a NEW NIGHT: Thursday night climbing. We meet at Beverly Heights Park at the base of Lookout. We'll group up about 5:25pm for introductions, route overview, sign-in, and other formalities. We plan to roll promptly at 5:30.

We'll follow our usual route (see below) to start the spring, and we'll be adding in climbs (Genesee Mountain, Montane, Lininger, and more) depending on available daylight, weather, and road conditions. Changes will largely be a game-time decision, covered in the route walk-through and potentially adjusted as we progress.

As is the nature of rides with climbing, this is a drop/regroup ride. Generally speaking, if you're able to complete Lookout solo in ~30 minutes you'll be able to rejoin at the regroup points. We will roll from the parking area by Buffalo Bill's grave at 6:00. For you Zwifters and powermeter users, a power output of 3 w/kg is a good starting point. Expect some separation on the climbs, with opportunities to rejoin at one of several regroup points. Being comfortable in a draft will help on some of the flatter / roller sections.

This event will be canceled if weather or roadways are not conducive for a safe, fun ride. We'll cancel as early as possible, however be prepared for game-time calls as conditions can be unpredictable in the foothills.

In the springtime, please bring and use lights!

We hope to see you out there!
