Rides


2014 Ride Schedule

Saturday rides are designed for faster riders. We meet at the beginning of the Slippery Elm Trail at 8 a.m. and ride anywhere from 30-50 miles at a pace of 16-20 mph

A new weekly ride is being started -- called the Slow Spokes group. This will be for the casual rider at an easy pace, maybe partway along the Trail. We meet at 6:30 p.m. on Thursdays at the beginning of the Trail.

 

*Rider strength categories:

Platinum:  The current "A" riders, those who feel comfortable riding with the Cycle Werks Wednesday group . . . those who ride at 22-25 mph.  In other words, very strong riders.

Gold:  Our current strong "B" riders, those who ride from between 18-22 mph, at distances of 40-70 miles.

Silver:  Our current "B" riders who ride between 15-18 mph, at distance of 30-50 miles.

Recreational:  Our current "C" riders who ride between 8-14 mph, and might do the Trail, either all the way or part way.
