WEDNESDAY NIGHT CHILL RIDE!
Wednesdays evenings starting April 2!
Join BRC for a fun ramble around the local area via a route full of urban exploration of everything you know and love about Richmond. This route is bound to work up an appetite, and thirst - so be sure to join the crew for a post ride beverage and/or a snack.
Kids and families welcome!
Ride will be 10-12 miles and will route through Bryan Park and Pine Camp Park. There will be some unpaved sections so tires wider than 35mm is highly encouraged. There will be re-route options for folks that would prefer to avoid the dirt!
What you need:
- A bike! Hybrid, mountain, road, and ebikes are all welcome. Recommend tires 35mm or wider, but route can be altered to accommodate all bikes.
- Helmets are MANDATORY.
- Taillights and headlights are REQUIRED.

SATURDAY ROAD RIDES!
Join Full Spectrum Racing and BRC for a "B to B+" pace road ride with an emphasis on creating a welcoming environment for folks looking to ride at a faster pace with a group but will still be fun and challenging for the most seasoned of roadies!
What to expect: 2-3 quick re-group spots along the route after a neutral rollout for the first few miles to get through the twisty bits leaving the shop.
We welcome all riders but do ask that you be prepared with proper equipment, food, hydration, and a helmet.
The route is ~42 miles of rolling elevation and the average speed will likely fall between 19-21mph.
There are some sections where speeds will exceed 25-28mph but there will also be several regroup points along the way to make sure that no one gets left behind!
If you have any questions about the route or the ride, please feel free to reach out to bryan@blueridgecyclery.com
Hope to see you on Saturday!

SATURDAY BRIDGE RIDES!
BikeFitRVA Racing and Blue Ridge Cyclery are excited to host the area's only bridge ride. What is a bridge ride? This is a ride for anyone who can ride ~16 mph or faster solo on the road. The expected average pace of this road ride will be 16-18mph and the ride will act as a “bridge-up” for folks who are looking for something faster than a city ride, but it won’t be a race ride. We are creating a space that is consistent, welcoming, and intentional.
For some folks this will be an easy conversational ride and for others this may be a more challenging effort — that is on purpose, but we won’t leave you behind. Bringing diverse experience and skills levels together in an intentional way benefits the whole community. We can’t wait to see you there!
Coffee: We’ll stop about half way through the ride at Classic Coffee, Tea and Books to regroup and grab a coffee (or your preferred beverage).
Ride Requirements:
- A bike suitable for road riding (no Time Trial bikes)
- Helmet
- Bottle of water
- Rear blinky light required, front light recommended
