Ride Groups
Currently we have three option for riding in Defiance.
Option 1. Defiance Cycling Tuesday/Thursday Riding Group – This is not a club – but a group of unorganized cyclists although very faithful. This group leaves from Trangle Park in Defiance every Tuesday and Thursday from April to October (sometime later just depends on the weather).
3 levels of riders:
1. The “A” group is a bunch of cycling speed demons, hang with them if you dare!!!
2. The “B” group who average around 17 MPH for the evening ride. We will still have ‘town line’ sprints, but regroup afterward for a good paced ride together.
3. The “C” group is for those who don’t want to be ‘ruled’ by testosterone. They will complete shorter distances at a more leisurely speed. 13-15 MPH would be the norm for “C” group.
We hope to have a few people in each group every ride.
Option 2: The Northwest Pedalers – This is a club that rides Saturday morning. Click here for more information.
Option 3: Team Defiance – This is a race team. Click here for more information.
