Weekly Saturday Group Ride
π²π²π²π²π²π²π²π²π²π²
Meet at Handy Bikes Retail Showroom
π3800 Wheeler Ave, Alexandria, VA
π₯ Rollout is at 10:30am,
so arrive around 10:10am to
sign the waver βοΈ
fill your water bottle π§
and maybe use our restroom or purchase some snacks for the ride.
Come ride with locals in the area! This group ride is for average folks who want to go for an average ride. Itβs not quite a coffee ride, but itβs definitely not a race! Routes will vary around the area, with an average speed around 14 mph (minimum of ~10 MPH) for around 15-30 miles.
Weβll be on pavement so bikes with smooth tires are encouraged, **helmets are mandatory**. Open to any riders who are willing and able to ride with a group including class 1, 2, and 3 e-bikes. No speed demons please! Good group ride etiquette is a requirement.
Please RSVP in advance on our Meetup page,
so that the ride leaders can prepare for the groupβs size.
