Group rides are an important part of Pedalhead's ongoing plan to get more people out on their bikes having fun. It's always more fun to go for a ride with people of similar skill and fitness levels, especially if you're new to the sport or our city. After 15 awesome seasons of group riding - we're confident that our weekly outings have earned their reputation for being the best in Western Canada.


2013 WEDNESDAY NIGHT GROUP RIDES

Everybody and anybody mountain bike ride. Beginner, Novice, Intermediate, Advanced, and Expert groups ride separate from one another. At least one volunteer guide from the shop/team is assigned to each group, ensuring that the pace matches the level of the group and that you'll be provided with Vegas-lounge-style entertainment. Normally 10-20 riders per group, we always wait for slower riders (no matter which group you're in) the emphasis is on FUN and a social riding atmosphere. Check your ego at home for these rides, unless you want to be covered in bacon fat and left for the mosquitoes in the river valley. We hope to see you on a Pedalhead group ride this season!!
