Family Ride 

This ride is at a casual pace of 8-10 mph, and is sightseeing and destination oriented.  Great for riders who may be uncomfortable about road riding, but would like to learn how to increase their confidence and safety.  The best ride for families with younger riders.  The social pace encourages new acquaintances.  A sweep is always appointed.

Level A 

This is a ride for beginners, returning cyclists, recovering cyclists, or anyone willing to ride an “A” pace and assist with the encouragement of new riders.  These rides take place at a slower pace -- usually not more than 12 - 14 mph. The rides regroup frequently. Paceline riding is not required. 

Level B 

The ride pace varies, but is generally not faster than 18 mph. The ride regroups frequently, and some paceline riding may occur. 

Level C 

The ride pace is brisk. These are rides for strong recreational riders. After a period of warming up, the pace often exceeds 20 mph in the flats. The group generally regroups at the top of long climbs.

Level D 

The ride pace is fast. The rides are for strong recreational riders and racers. The atmosphere is competitive. If you are looking for love, get yourself a puppy, because you won't find it on one of these rides! These people eat their young. The group is not obligated to re-group if you are dropped. Paceline riding is required and FAST!
