General Ride Descriptions:

• Leisure = Relaxed slower pace 10 – 13 mph 
• Moderate = Mid level 14 – 17 mph
• Fast = Advanced level 18+ mph

(If you're riding a mountain bike or new to road biking, we recommend starting at the leisure pace and working up from there.)

Weekly rides mostly occur March through November, subject to weather conditions and available daylight.  Weekly morning rides tend to start at 8 a.m. (June, July, August) or 9 a.m in other months.  The start times for other rides is variable.

Weekday and Saturday rides listed start at the same location each week unless the leader or group decide otherwise.  Members can add additional ride options if special events and opportunities arise.

The start location for Sunday rides changes each week.  Usually in the Rockford state-line area. there may also be multiple distance options to allow for a wider range of participants.

Most of our rides are on paved roads.  Gravel rides are available occasionally, usually added on an ad hoc basis.  Many rides make a meal stop of some kind, but leaders/group can choose if it's a sit down restaurant or convenience store snack.
