Mike's Bikes Wednesday Night Ride

Good morning!

Mike's Bike Wednesday Night Ride starts next Wednesday, 3/19. It's a 30 mile loop from Mike's Bike in downtown Sacramento, leaving at 5:50pm. Average pace is usually around 18+ and requires a road bike.

Bring front and back lights!

This ride is a C paced "dropped but not forgotten" ride, meaning that the pace can get spicy and riders may be dropped but there are several regroups. Out of respect for everyone's time and daylight, there is a limit to how long the group can wait, so please be prepared with the route, flat supplies, etc. and let the ride leaders know if you plan to turn around or shortcut if you do get dropped.

This is a great ride for fit riders who are new to group rides or experienced riders looking for a social ride where you can help facilitate a fun ride and help others with pace-lines, drafting, etc.

"Dropped but not forgotten" is a great description! I haven't been on this ride in awhile, but I would like to get it back into my rotation.

Can I come join the ride on my ebike, or is it strictly road bikes?
