Elmhurst Bicycle Club Offers Beginner Group Rides

Have you ever seen a group of people out biking and wondered if you could do that? Or, do you bike for exercise already but you’d rather do it with a group so you could learn new routes?

The social aspects of riding in a group does make the exercise more fun, and thanks to the Elmhurst Bicycle Club, it doesn't have to be intimidating.

The Elmhurst Bicycle Club offers rides at many different speeds and distances, and in July, the club is offering a few extra “beginner” rides to help introduce people to group bicycle riding.

Here are some examples of what is available:

10-22+ mph, 10-20 miles

Phone numbers of ride leaders are listed on the schedule; feel free to call with questions, especially if the weather is questionable.

Here's a few things to keep in mind:

• You must wear a helmet on all EBC rides.
• You do not need to be an EBC member in order to go on a ride.
• Children under 18 must be accompanied by an adult rider.
• Please arrive 15 minutes before the start time so you are ready to ride on time.
