About this event

Welcome!

Welcome to the Ramping Up - a progressive series of rides from Jan through May to prepare for multiple day rides (such as "Cycle to Zero" or "NorCal AIDS Cycle"). We start off with a 17 mile ride and build each week until we are doing a 100 mile ride. If you consistently take part in this series, you will be ready for just about any ride! Not only are the rides epic, but the scenery and the people are too. We are a warm and welcoming inclusive group of cyclist of all ages and shapes.
