Join the Distance Builders for rides varying from 45 to 80 miles every Saturday morning, year 'round.

This ride has two regular rides every Saturday, and two long rides on most Saturdays. We stop as a group for mechanical problems and flat tires. There is at least one rest stop, usually two in the summer. We divide into 3 to 4 pace packs either at the start or at a break point on the ride.

DB rides are NOT 'no drop' rides, so please be fairly confident you can do the distance and pace. The leaders will do their best to maintain group integrity by riding the published speeds and using re-group points.   Distances and speeds will vary depending on wind, road and other conditions.

Check the DB ride forum for any changes due to the weather.
