Road Bike 101

A special feature of the 100 Grand, Road Bike 101 is for cyclists of all ages who are wary of road riding but enjoy cycling trails and neighborhood streets. RB 101 riders join small groups with experienced Rapid Wheelmen Club roadies in the 100 Grand 35-mile ride. You will build confidence in riding on the road and learn the basic 'rules of the roadie' for cycling singly or in groups on our challenging but scenic 35-mile route -- complete with hills both up and down! You will learn bike handling skills to help you no matter what types of riding you do.

RB 101 riders must be able to ride the 100 Grand 35-mile course in 3 to 4 hours. Rest stops with beverages, fruit, and snacks are provided. Full lunch at the conclusion of the ride.
