2024 Rides and Events

All Sunday rides, except out-of-town rides, leave from the Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf, 13420 Maxella Ave, Villa Marina Marketplace.  Most people ride to the start, but some drive and park on nearby streets.

Sunday departure time is 8:00 am up to Memorial Day weekend and then switches to the summer start time of 7:30 am through Labor Day weekend, except for out-of-town rides. Please be ready to roll at the departure time!

Your bike should be in good working condition and you should be prepared to fix a flat (i.e., have spare tube, tire levers, patches, pump or CO2 inflator, etc.).  You should also carry a water bottle (two in warm weather), snacks, and lunch money. Helmets are required at all times, and no headsets or earbuds, please!

This schedule is always subject to change.  As a convenience to riders, it may include  mention of and links to other organized rides that some of us participate in, but these are not “official” or “out-of-town” MDRCC rides.

Please, no E-Bikes.  This group is somewhat traditional and part of the reason people ride with us is for the fitness it brings under their own power.
