We try and keep a chill (no pun intended this month) pace so everyone can keep up and ride in a mass. There is usually at least 1 rest stop and an ending planned later on the ride.

Bring water and whatever snacks you may need. Store stop closer to the rest stop.

Meet up: 6:15-6:30pm

Hear us out. Which location and time do you like best? Looking to change location and time beginning January 2026. But we need your input. The bridge with few amenities but great downtown and town lake views or ping pong table with neighborhood parking, bathrooms, food, drinks, grocery store nearby? Vote in our poll on Instagram until December 15th or like the photo of your choice on Facebook.
