The two recurring rides start at the same time and at the same place each week. The Social Revolutions is for everyone, including those new to riding in a group. We ride at a 14–16mph social pace.  We encourage riders looking for an introduction to group riding as well as those just looking to meet others to give this ride a try. Members looking for a ride to reconnect with friends should come too!

The Rapid Revolutions is the training ride option. If you want to kick-start the weekend with a quick ride, the Rapid Revolutions is for you! Average speed of 16–19+ mph, go big or go home!

Just show up, introduce yourself to others, find someone to ride with, & agree on the rules of the ride. Observe social distance & face mask guidelines. Then off you go. Split into fast & social groups as needed.

Two options available: rapid & social. Join the one you want on Strava to let others know you will be there:
