This is a 3-mile loop. All skill levels are welcomed and encouraged. We will ride one loop together as a group and then break off into paces that are comfortable for each person. Don’t forget to join us for post-ride snacks!

Weekend Rides

Saturday Rides

10409667_10154724232573647_4695103135808335224_n-2This ride typically leaves Capitol Hill at 7:10/8:10 AM (summer/winter) from 8th and Penn SE with a pickup in Georgetown behind the bank at Wisconsin and M NW at 7:30/8:30 AM (summer/winter).  Rides meet on a week-to-week basis - follow the forum posting to determine if a ride is happening this weekend. All paces welcome!

While this is NOT a no-drop ride, the Middle & Back of Pack (MBOP) Group will provide a no-drop option every first Saturday of the month during the summer. This no-drop option ride will have a sweeper and support paces from 13-17 mph (flats). For those who have never done the Saturday ride, here is a great option to become familiar with the route and to join others of similar paces.

The Middle & Back of Pack (MBOP) Group will also have a seperate ride on the 4th Sunday of each month (more info on the Middle & Back of Pack  (MBOP) Community Group page).
