Folks on Spokes offers a variety of rides for different pace or skill levels. Regularly scheduled rides begin in late April and run through October.
Sunday Club Rides are grouped by pace and include categories for 10-12 mph, 12-14 mph, 15-17 mph, and 16-20 mph. Distances range from 15 to 60 miles. Additional rides are avaiable on week days. Several weekend overnight rides are scheduled during the summer months.
Most Sunday rides havea ride leader who selects the starting location, starting time, and route for the day. And most Sunday rides stop for a mid ride lunch break.
Ride details are advertised in The Spokin' Word, the monthly newsletter, and on the Folks On Spokes bulletin board and calendar.
One Sunday a month, all of the various pace groups get together for a social event, such as a group lunch, picnic, or ice cream social.
Some rides, especially off season rides and weekday rides, are 'Show and Go'. There is no ride leader, and the route and pace are determined by those who show up.
The following table gives an outline of the typical weekly ride schedule.
