Ride FAQ

You should always check the Ride Schedule before proceeding to the Start Location

 

Ride Pace

Each ride listing will indicate the pace for the ride.  Pace is the average speed while riding and does not include time spent waiting at traffic lights or stop signs. A ride listed as a 12-14 mph pace will probably cover 8-10 miles per hour in city traffic. Rides outside of the city will generally cover more distance at the same pace.

Ride leaders will make every attempt to maintain the indicated pace.  Actual pace will be determined by road, traffic and weather conditions, and the group as a whole.
