Group Rides

Throughout the year, Comox Valley Cycle Club members participate in various group rides, and we encourage everyone to join them. Training and Group rides take place on Wednesday and Sunday, weather permitting. Rides may be on the road or GRX, gravel/cross March through October coinciding with Daylight Savings.

Riders can expect a moderate pace with a no-drop format and have cycling performance level ability.

• Performance level means having the cycling fundamental skills of clipping in, knowledge of gearing and where to use it, holding and riding in a line, cornering, understanding the rules of the road with moderate fitness to maintain on your own 20-25kph average. In a group, we will ride 20-30+ kph, faster for short periods of time.
• No drop means that there are ride options, stops or turn arounds to regroup.

From November through February, check the Facebook Page for updates and bike selection.

Our experienced club members and coaches provide helpful tips and tactics to improve your bike handling skills and get the most from your training rides, whatever your goal may be. Our club coaches* are available to prepare training programs for those folk who would like to improve their cycling experience.

Riding with a group boosts the confidence of less experienced riders and is invaluable in helping prepare for participating in an organized road race, fondo, gravel event or cross race in the future.
