Everyone’s Favorite: The Tuesday Evening Ride: “Ramp-Up” begins on March 26th, for its thirteenth year! Start at WCC northeast parking lot, near the intersection of West Kellogg and June Road. Meet 5:45pm leave at 6pm. The speed and route of the groups will vary by each group’s ride leaders. Initially riders will be group by ability and average speed. (14 to 16 mph, 16-18, 18+-) with more refinement as needed.

Distance 15 to 20 miles. Ride focus on the skills necessary to ride in groups. We will concentrate on safe riding practices, pace-line skills, how to overtake other riders and pass them in a safe manner, and how to deal with traffic.

Riders new to group riding are encouraged to start attending this ride early in the season. During April and May we "Ramp-up" to better group riding skills. In June and beyond, there is more riding and less instruction. But contact the ride leader even if you want to start riding later in the season and we can try to hook you up with a group-ride buddy to get you caught up.
