Recap/Results

Another big group for Kyle's Bikes Wednesday Night Ride. Or two groups, actually. Eight folks did the fast road route and the bulk of the group rode out and back on the High Trestle Trail. This was a fast group last night! But it does vary from week to week. Show up and give us a try!

Description

Trail Ride

Distance - ~27 miles, but let us know if you want something shorter

At Kyle's Bikes we want to make cycling fun for everyone. And we think riding bikes with friends is a ton of fun. So on Wednesday nights we host a group ride. Spring and summer, we have a road/paved trail ride. At the start of October, we'll switch to a mountain bike ride.


Our spring/summer ride gathers at the shop at 5:30 and rolls out at 5:45. It's starting to get dusky near the end of the ride, so bring lights with you!


The pace, distance, route, and number of groups depend on who shows up. So show up, let us know what you're looking for, and we'll find a group for you! Generally, we have two groups:

  • The paved trail group has riders of many speeds, so it spreads out into smaller groups and comes back together at multiple regroup points. A few experienced riders hang in the tail of the group to make sure no one gets dropped or lost. (If someone wants to make the ride shorter by turning back early, just let one of these rider know so we don't worry.) This group takes advantage of the many rec trails in the area, choosing a 27–30 mile route based on wind direction and the whims of the group. (Routes link)
  • The road ride averages 18+ mph for the entire ride including a couple regroup spots. Typical pace when riding is 18 to 22 depending on conditions. This group follows the same 27 mile route every week. (Route link)


We go out to dinner afterward, so stick around.
