Women's Rides
The rides listed on this page are women-only with a "no-drop" policy. In addition,
most local cycling teams have rides open to women and men. Check out the
Local Teams page for more info.
Monday evenings (April through August),6 pm departure
The Hub Bike Co-op, located at 3020 Minnehaha Avenue South
The Monday women-only rides are aimed at building riding skills and cycling
confidence. These rides will be led by an experienced woman cyclist, and a no-
drop policy will be followed (no one gets left behind). Riders can expect a 20 mile
route, with longer rides as daylight and fitness levels increase. Visit http://groups.
google.com/group/the-hub-womens-ride for updates and info. All women are
invited to join and help build women's cycling in Minnesota!
1st Tuesday of the month (April through August), 6 pm departure
Birchwood Cafe, located at 3311 East 25th Street.
Designed to create a comfortable, welcoming atmosphere for women of all
abilities, the Birchwood Women's Team welcomes new riders to join the ride on
the first Tuesday of the month. The ride will introduce new riders to group riding as
well as other women interested in the sport and recreation. The rides go at a 15-
to 18-mph pace with no single person left behind. If the group is large enough, it
will split into two groups: one for women looking for a faster pace and one for
women just out to ride. All women, team members or not, are welcome. More info
can be found at http://birchwoodbiketeam.com/women.html
Wednesdays 6 pm departure from Excelcycle every Wednesday evening
(weather permitting).
This open women's ride, hosted by The Verve Racing Team and Excelcycle, is
intended to help women become more comfortable riding in groups. It's a great
step up from Excel's Tuesday Development ride, with an expected average pace of
15-18mph. No one will be dropped during this ride but you should have a base
level of fitness so you can enjoy yourself and learn more about riding in a group. A
typical route for this ride leaves from the store and heads north up 19 to Maple
Plain, through Baker Park along 24, back down into Wayzata and returning to
excelcycle. More info at http://www.excelcycle.com/ride-schedule-amp-maps-pg-
