If what has been keeping you from joining a bike ride with friends is that you think you'll have to dress up in spandex, well think again!

The City bicycle ride is designed for all riders but in particular for those who may not have ridden in a while or just aren’t sure where to start. This ride is a fun social ride that starts in the parking lot of Windlands Park located behind The COM (off of Wadley and “A” Streets). You don’t have to get dressed up in spandex, all you need is shorts and t-shirt, helmets are required. It does get warm, so bring some water. You will also need a bike lock to use while everyone is eating.

With the nights getting shorter it is a good idea to have lights as well. You'll ride through the streets of Old Midland and wind up at a food & watering hole to get refreshed.

Everyone meets about 5:45 pm. and ride off at 6:00 pm. But before setting off from the parking lot, there is a vote to see where the group would like to ride to and have dinner then everyone goes there.

The City Ride is a fun ride and open to all ages and they riders ranging from 3 to 70. I you want to get out and see what Midland looks like on a bicycle and get some exercise doing it, then “Come Ride With Us”.
