Rides and Events
Get rolling in the spring, summer, and fall months on our weekly group rides!
During the winter, keep in touch with your bike by attending our basic bike maintenance & repair clinics!
We're about much more than building and selling bikes – we're about selling the love of bikes and helping to build a community that bikes. That's why during the spring, summer and fall we get rolling several times a week with friendly group rides, for cyclists of all levels of experience and ability.
During the winter we regularly host bike clinics that teach the basics of how to maintain your bicycle and perform the most common types of roadside repairs: Changing flat tires, making minor gear and brake adjustments, and replacing your chain without putting any of your fingers at risk (ouch!).
Check this page regularly for group ride and event updates, or like us on Facebook to receive automatic updates from our Timeline.
You can also subscribe to our newsletter, which will keep you posted on all upcoming events, ride schedules, in store sales, as well as gear reviews, bike nutrition and training articles, details about some of our favorite trails and road routes, and all sorts of other fun goodies from the wonderful world of bicycling!
