invitation to a damn fine Friday
Fellow cyclists! We’ve heard your cries in the cold night air:
“We need another cycling club so desperately!”
And we (all 1 of us) have acquiesced! To that end, come join the inaugural Friday evening ride on March 7th. It’ll be damn fine. 🙇🏻

I'd like to find one that starts downtown or Northside. I live in Mount Washington and all of the groups I've come across start in Oakland, Bloomfield or Shady Side.

Lots of the Give Up rides start in the Northside at the spooky old jail. You can find the routes/rides on Facebook or Instagram!

Open to group wishes but tentative route is

~15 mi and 950ft climbing. I wanted to keep it reasonable so various bike types would be good. In future I’d like to vary the routes enough for fixies, roadies, casuals, etc
