Group rides are a great way for new and experienced riders to join like-minded people for an enjoyable time around the area. If you want to see what rides, routes and trails our experienced riders can bring you on, check out the New England Bike Riders Club.  Road Rides happen during the warm weather months – typically starting during April until it gets cold & dark later in the fall. 

 GROUP ROAD RIDES – Mondays 5:45 (starting April 22nd)

Monday “B” and “C” road rides will be leaving from New England Bike  (512 College Highway, Southwick, MA 01077). Be sure that you have all items that you need at the time of the ride departure. Ride leaders will be leaving the store at the posted time. If you need any additional items or service from the store, please arrive early enough to get what you need before the ride starts.  We try to accommodate all riders on our road rides.  If you are new to cycling or a experienced rider we hope you will feel satisfied and comfortable with the terrain and duration of our group road rides.  All Monday group road rides are NO DROP rides (this means if you’re struggling we won’t leave you alone!) and are designed to welcome all riders of many varying abilities and experience.  Our group may split into two groups of quicker pace riders averaging 16.5-18 mph 30ish miles and more conservative pace riders averaging 13-15 mph 20ish miles in most cases.  Our routes change most weeks to offer a variety of what our beautiful area has to offer in road riding, we are very fortunate to live in such a great place to enjoy the sport of cycling. Rides will gradually build to a quicker pace over the course of the season.
