STANDING WEEKLY RIDE DETAILS:

Monday Evening BASE Ride Ends: Monday, August 30, 2010 at 6:00PM

PLEASE NOTE: There will be only ONE base ride on Mondays.

Every Monday evening please join us for our base ride. Base riding should be at a very easy tempo that leaves your legs feeling happy and refreshed. In 2010, we will no longer offer a slower ride at 5:45PM . The 5:45PM ride leaders have joined forces with the 6PM ride and we'll offer a variety of routes during the course of the season. This is a Women's Only, No-drop ride. Riders need a road bike, helmet, and a willingness to enjoy a relaxed ride.

We are looking for more ride leaders!

If you would like to lead a ride, but don't know how to get started, contact us- we can help.

STANDING MONTHLY RIDES:

1st Saturday of EVERY Month: Sturdy Girl Tempo Ride! 9:00AM

**Note The EARLIER Spring Start Time April to November!**

Join us for our monthly tempo ride. This ride will begin and end at the Bulldog Statue (25th and Pennsylvania Ave's.) This ride meets monthly, and the route is always different. We attempt to ride steady tempo pace of 15-16MPH, and distance vary but will be between 45-60 miles depending on weather condition and the mood of the group. Riders should possess strong group riding skills or be willing to develop them. Please bring food and drinks because as the days get cooler we will stop less frequently to keep warm. Rain, wet roads, or daytime high predicted less than 40 degrees will cancel this ride. We are always looking for a slower group leader if anyone is interested, please Contact Us.
