Ride Categories explained:
Groups are based on ride style and sustainable effort, with speeds shown as a guide only. Conditions, terrain, and group dynamics will always affect actual pace.
Please choose the group that best matches your comfortable, sustainable pace.
Social Ride
Typically 12–14 mph
Relaxed, inclusive, no-drop riding with frequent regrouping. Suitable for newer or returning riders and those preferring an easier pace. These rides will have a ride leader.
Steady Ride
Typically 14–15 mph
Comfortable, steady riding with some regrouping. A step up from Social, offering more flow while remaining social and accessible.
Intermediate Ride
Typically ~16 mph
Continuous riding with limited stops. Suitable for riders comfortable sustaining a steady effort over longer periods.
Advanced Ride
Typically ~17 mph
Strong, sustained pace with minimal regrouping. For experienced riders comfortable riding at higher effort.
Performance Ride
Typically ~ 18 mph (or as agreed by the group)
Fast, training-focused riding with minimal stops. Riders should be confident and self-sufficient.
Important Notes
· These are group rides, and riders are expected to ride cooperatively as part of a cohesive group, supporting a steady and consistent group pace appropriate to the ride description.
· Riders should maintain a smooth, even effort and avoid unnecessary accelerations or changes of pace that disrupt group cohesion.
· Please choose the group that reflects your comfortable sustainable pace, not your maximum ability.
· If you are consistently riding at the top of a group’s range, consider moving up to the next group.
· Speeds are indicative only and not strict targets.
· Groups may vary depending on terrain, weather, and conditions.
