We meet in the gravel parking lot on the east side of the brewery next to the beer garden. We will ride to Walnut and do about 8 miles of trail before heading back to enjoy the Brewery and food trucks. Depending on turnout, we split into 2-3+ groups. High lumen lights are required when dark.

Our usual route.... 25 to 30 miles. We leave at 9:30 sharp. Be self sufficient, we can help but not if you don't have the necessary equipment to help yourself!

Special, though regular rides and events

Super inviting group of ladies that love a bit of a challenge. The OG route climbs Mt. Bonnell but rumor has it, they're switching it up. Overall a great and supportive time, especially for those new to riding.

Central Machine Works

Registration Required. Cruise COTA’s famed stars and stripes in a stress-free environment without the worry of city traffic while admiring fantastic sunset views of COTA’s signature Observation Deck and Austin skyline. After the evening ride concludes, cyclists can replenish and recharge with an ice-cold drink, mouth-watering refreshments and great conversations and camaraderie with fellow riders.

Circuit of the Americas

Absolutely chaotic group of hundreds of people who takeover roads in tricked out bikes with costumes going from house party to house party. All of the parties have live punk bands, very queer friendly, lots of drinking. Low mileage but combined with the moshpits and late hours, it's EXHAUSTINGLY perfect.

Rio Vista Park, San Marcos

Rider-led, chaotic but fun, destination and route are up to the whims of the mass, and we try to keep it slow to ensure everyone sticks together.

Second Monday of the Month, typically

Leave work early and start your weekend right with a Friday afternoon ride. The Truancy Ride rolls through neighborhoods and along official bike routes and includes a few hills and some optional sprints. Riders should have experience riding in groups and be able to change a puncture and address minor mechanical issues.

Great for intermediate riders this co-ed ride typically rolls steady when leaving and coming back into town with several "hot spots" when the roads open up. Overall average speed is typically 16-18 mph but higher when on flats and lower when climbing/in-town. Regroups at major intersections, after hot spots, and for mechanicals.

The Scout-A-Route is perfect for new riders and folks looking for a casual spin. Usually the ride splits into two groups, one averages roughly 14-16 mph for 20-30 miles, the other averages about 12 mph for 15-25 miles. Leave your heart rate monitor at home and bring some cash for the occasional refreshment stop and enjoy.

East Side Pedal Pushers

The Bagel Ride was started around 1992 by Bill Reams and Ted Dunbar as "Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure." Bill passed away in March 2014 and the ride has continued to be one of the best group rides in town. Usually 50-60 miles (80-100 km), this ride is social at times and race pace at others, but tends to stay a steady double paceline without many surges. Currently led by David Serrins, The Bagelmeister.

Little Woodrow's on Tech Ridge

One of Austin's oldest rides meeting every Sunday for over 30 years! Recommended for intermediate and advanced riders. Riders should understand group riding etiquette and expect a social but brisk 2x2 ride with a stop or two. "No drop" but be prepared to handle your own mechanicals and ride at the advertised pace.

T&T is led by Violet Crown and departs every Tuesday and Thursday morning at 7:00 am for 2 hours of steady riding at 16-18 mph with a couple of sprint points. Riders should have experience riding in groups and be able to change a puncture. Routes vary and are meant to provide some steady tempo training hours.

Mellow Johnny's Bike Shop

Perfect for those new to group rides. Riders should be comfortable changing a puncture. Routes vary and ride is no-drop. Meant to provide some steady miles for those not yet ready for The Bagel Ride, the Violet Crown Sunday Ride, and former racers who are done riding fast and like a conversational pace. :)
