My name is Rick Beasley, and I'm the owner of Cycle Fitness in Monroe, CT. Every Saturday morning we organize a group ride that sets off at approximately 8am. On most days, we usually have two different rides to chose from. One of which is for the novice rider and is around 20 miles in length, while the other is for the slightly more experienced rider, and it's genrally in the 40 mile range. On our MapMyRide profile you can find detailed information on some of the routes we have done recently, as well as what kind of speed we average (don't worry, we aren't trying to break any speed records). You will also find routes that individuals in the group do on their own time. For more information about our shop and the ride, you can visit us at www.cyclefitness.com. The status of the ride can be affected by the weather, and to find out if the ride is a go you can visit twitter.com/cyclefitness. I usually will have the status of the ride posted sometime on friday afternoon. *Note: Starting on November 1st, due to the cold weather, we've substituted a 1 hour intense spin class at the shop at 9am. Bring your own pedals, and the first class is free. Come give it a try!
