Social Cycling Austin, Austin, TX (2026)

Our unique events promote socializing between all types of cyclists no matter what your skill level, what kind of bike you ride, or what terrain you like to tear up. Sundays
🚲 The Yoga Ride ( ) is yoga instructors donating their time to build a healthier and happier cycling community through the transmission of yoga. We host a free, hour-long yoga class and no-drop bike ride on Sunday evenings. During the warm seasons we take a dip in Barton Springs to cool off! Ride schedules vary so follow page for upcoming events.
🚲 Sunday Bike Curious Ride is a 10-mile ride that occurs on Sunday evenings that cruises around Austin while visiting art/murals and other interesting sights. Mondays:
🚲Bikin' Betties ( ) is a ladies-only, beginner friendly bike ride that meets on the 1st and 3rd Monday nights of each month for a fun cruise around town that ends with drinks and social time, karaoke, bike maintenance workshops, and more!
🚲 : We have partnered with the Texas School for the Blind and Visually Impaired to take students on a social ride on tandem bicycle so they can experience something most of us take for granted. Tuesdays:
🚲The Southern Walnut Creek Trail Ride ( ) meets Tuesday evenings, weather permitting, at Govalle Park. This paved trail is nearly 22 miles roundtrip in length providing for a nice long ride. The SWCT pace is a little quicker than others, but it is a no drop ride with a mass up point at mile 11. It takes about an hour and forty-five minutes to complete the ride. We typically end at an East Austin spot to socialize over food and beverages.
🚲The Yoga Ride ( ) is yoga instructors donating their time to build a healthier and happier cycling community through the transmission of yoga. Thursdays:
🚲 The Thursday Night Social Ride ( ) is a very casual cruise around town with anywhere from 150-350 cyclists attending every week! The pace is social (easy). Typically, we ride to various locations where we socialize, swim, play games or just hang out. We then ride some more before arriving at one of our many generous host bars that supply our riders with hospitality and good times. Sometimes we have end at parks for special events (bike jousting, ect). Saturdays:
🚲The Saturday Morning Caffeine Cruise ( ) meets at a coffee shop then we ride and stop at a few places for food, drinks, and sometimes swimming. We do farmers’ markets, swap meets, parades, awesome Austin landmarks, and other cool things that make Saturdays more fun. The pace is social and the group size is fairly small, which makes this a great ride for beginners and for meeting people. Subscribe to our page: www.facebook.com/socialcyclingaustin
