Absolutely. We organize rides at different pace levels—25-mile leisurely routes, 45-mile moderate rides, and 65+ mile challenging adventures. You'll find cyclists returning to the sport at every one of our weekend events. Our sweep riders make sure nobody gets left behind, and we always regroup at rest stops to check in with everyone.
Gravel riding doesn't require fancy gear—most cyclists use a gravel bike, cyclocross bike, or even a hardtail mountain bike. If you've got a road bike with wider tires (28mm or larger), you can usually manage lighter gravel routes. Come to one of our beginner gravel rides first; we'll walk you through what works, and you'll meet others trying it out for the first time too.
Our spinning meetups combine structured indoor cycling with real community. We book classes at partnered studios, then grab coffee or lunch afterward—that's where the friendships happen. Think of it as cross-training for outdoor rides, plus a low-pressure way to connect with the group during winter months or bad weather.
We partner with local nonprofits for charity rides throughout the year—usually 2–3 events per region. All announcements go out via email first, then to our social channels. Sign up for our newsletter on the contact page, and you'll hear about upcoming charity events, registration details, and route information weeks in advance.
We run color-coded or numbered pace groups—Green for 12–14 mph, Blue for 15–17 mph, Red for 18+ mph—and you pick what feels right. On ride day, we brief everyone on the pace, route, and where sweepers will be. If you're between levels, join us for a ride and we'll help you figure out your sweet spot. Most people find their people in the first or second ride.
We're active across the U.S. with rides in most regions—from New England coastal loops to Southwest gravel trails. The fastest way to find what's near you is to reach out through our contact page. Tell us your location and riding style, and we'll connect you with the right group or let you know what's launching soon in your area.
