Introductory Sunday Ride

This is a no-drop ride meant for beginner riders. No group riding experience is required. Route decided at the start of the ride based on group size/experience.

Sunday Advanced Recovery Ride

This is a drop ride, if the wait on any hill is more than a few minutes - will come back and let you know, etc. Should have some experience with group riding etc. Might stop for coffee at Danville Peets depending on if no one is late :-) for something at home.

Intermediate Sunday Ride

A steady paced cruise across the Richmond bridge and into Marin County. Good views and coffee stop guaranteed! This ride is aimed at those ready to progress beyond our introductory ride, but not quite ready to join some of our more advanced rides. Also good for those just looking for a relaxed, relatively flat ride. If you are new to group riding or unsure of your fitness level, we encourage you to join our introductory ride on the first Sunday of the month.
