Ride Descriptions

Cycling with the Sun City Bike Club offers a group ride opportunity every day of the week with a variety of pace and distance options.  Destinations and routes are chosen at the start of each ride.

Rides are coordinated by Club members who are familiar with bike friendly routes in the TX Hill Country, and are also familiar with the rules of the road.  To ride with the group, you must follow these safety rules.  

***Be sure to wear a helmet, bring your cell phone and personal ID, pack water, and use head/tail lights!
