We are very excited to announce the 2024 Metro 313 Cyclones Ride Schedule. This year we have a
full schedule of rides developed for the various riding experience levels of our growing
membership base. Please see Ride Calendar for departure time and start location of each ride. As
always, our rides must be safe and fun while developing cycling skills and passion.

RIDE SCHEDULE:

MONDAYS
SKILLS TRAINING
Come one! Come all! Focus will be on fundamental cycling skills that will benefit a beginner as
well as the experienced cyclist. Generally,
this will not be a high mileage ride. Mileage and speed will vary based on curriculum. Weekly
curriculum and any location changes will be posted on the ride calendar.

TUESDAYS
CYCLONES MORNING ROLL AT BELLE ISLE
Rides will consist of laps of the island totaling approximately 20-30 miles
at 14-17 mph or whatever the wind allows and fun fellowship, all riders welcome.

WEDNESDAYS
WOMEN’S RIDE
It’s Women’s Wednesdays. Rides are designed to be “skills building”. Rides will start off at
approximately a 12 mph pace, 20 miles to start. As the season progresses, pace and distance will
adjust. This ride’s motto is “burn some calories while having fun with friends”. At least one male
Club member will participate for safety and assistance.

THURSDAYS
CYCLONES MORNING ROLL AT BELLE ISLE
Rides will consist of laps of the island totaling approximately 20-30 miles
at 14-17 mph or whatever the wind allows and fun fellowship, all riders welcome.

HILL CHASERS
Detroit is notoriously flat but we’ve sought out what we could find and it hurts so good. This ride
will tackle the rolling terrain of outer metro Detroit for hill climbing training and development.
Participants must be capable of maintaining a 14-16 mph average for 30 minutes to engage in this activity.
Hill training helps build strength and endurance.
