Standing Club Rides
Ride Guidelines and Safety Video
Yorkville Monday Night
Description: Fast paced drop ride with a sweep. No one will be dropped from the sweep. The pace of the sweep group will be determined by the riders present, typically 16 – 17 mph. The south route is 27.5 mostly flat miles. Occasionally some or all riders may elect to take an alternate (north) 30 mile route.
Ride Leader for fast group: Kurt Eby
Ride Leader for moderate group: Doug Lee
Co-Ride Leader: Jerry Hoff
Pace: Moderate to face-paced ride with multiple route options: a 20+ MPH option or a 16-18 MPH group. There is always a “sweep rider” so no one gets left behind.
Distance and terrain: 25 to 30 miles over flat to rolling terrain in rural Yorkville, Dover, and Waterford, WI.
Moderate Monday Night
Description: Average speed to be in the range of 15-17 mph, based on the slowest attendee. (no shame!) It is intended to be a no-drop ride, but riders should try to make sure they can AVERAGE 15-17 mph. (faster downhill or with tailwind, slower uphill or into headwinds) This is intended to be slower than Mon and Thu fast rides, but faster than Tue, Wed and Thu Trek store rides and would be a good way to build strength to eventually join a faster group, if desired. Helmets are required and lights are recommended. No peloton riding but drafting is encouraged, maybe mixed in with nice conversation. Double pace line on less populated roads, single file on busier roads.
