WEEKENDS RIDES

Infamous Brewing Co / Crank House Ride – Saturday September 6, 2014

It was brought to my attention that the 1^st Saturday of each month there is a ride that starts from the Infamous Brewing Company near Steiner Ranch on 4602 Weletka Dr. 78734 at 8am.  They have an 18 mile route and a 31 mile route and there will be beer and food available after the ride.  Please meet at C&C at 7:30am and then we can all bike over there and add another 10 miles round trip.  If you want to drive over to Infamous Brewing Company or learn more about the routes please visit the following link:

Also after the Tour de Cure on September 13, 2014 I’ll reach out to Oasis Brewing Company and see if we can start and finish a ride there too.  The Noble Pig has opened up right next to Oasis Brewing Company.

COFFEE SHOP RIDE – Sunday September 7^th at 7:30am at Cups & Cones

Join us this Sunday for the SRC Coffee Shop Ride!  This is for those wanting to explore options outside of Steiner Ranch or those wanting a nice social/recovery ride.

The group will leave C&C at 7:30 like the other Sunday ride groups, but will target some not-too-far coffee shop for some espresso, biscotti, and socialization.  The ride will average around 15-17 mph and should be perfect for those looking for a recovery ride or to extend their range out of Steiner.  Each week we will pick a different destination, but they would typically be around 15 miles from C&C.  This is a no-drop ride, but you should be able to ride 30-40 miles at a 15-17 mph pace.

BABES (and BROS) on BIKES / RECOVERY RIDE – Sunday September 7^th at 8:30am at Cups & Cones

Come join us for the Sunday social Babes (and Bros) on Bikes / Recovery Ride.   This user-friendly ride is intended for beginners looking to gain some experience and/or riders wanting a later start or easy Sunday cruise.  Riders meet at Cups & Cones for ‘wheels down’ at 8:30​am. This is a ‘no drop’ ride, meaning the group stays together, within the neighborhoods of Steiner Ranch.  The route and pace is customized to the level of riders who show up.  In general, you can expect a mostly flat course, about 1 hour long varying from 10-20 miles.  There will be optional hill climbs for those wanting an extra challenge, and to help beginners set riding goals.  You will learn the basics of bicycle safety, riding technique, equipment recommendations, but mostly, you will meet new friends and have FUN!  All are welcome!  Hope to see you there!

WEEKENDS RIDES

360 & Cuernavaca Ride – Saturday August 30^th at 7:30am at Cups & Cones

This Saturday the Steiner Ranch Cycling Club we will be doing a fun ride on the newly paved road out towards Lakeway.  We will head out Bee Caves and then onto 360 South for a bit.  We will cross over after a few miles and then head back and then back on Bee Caves but we will drop down Cuernavaca and do the loop and climb back out and then back onto Bee Caves and back to 620 back to Steiner Ranch.  This ride will be between 40 – 50 miles but there is an option to head out towards Cozy Cove and add a bunch of miles if you need more.

As always there will be an A Group that will average 18 – 20 mph over the entire ride and there will be a B Group that will average 15 – 17 mph.  Both groups don’t have designated sweepers so you should have a certain level of fitness to keep up with the respective group.
