Join a JoyRide
Riders of all levels are welcome! ALL of the HCRA JoyRides are considered a “No Drop.” This means that no rider is left behind, and you can count on an experienced rider ready nearby to help and support you, as needed. Some rides have SAG which means a "support & gear" vehicle stays with the riders on the route in case help is needed. Additionally, we provide digital route maps for each ride via our RidewithGPS account.
At these links, you can view the routes, print cue sheets, and download files in various formats for your favorite cycling software. Please note that we may change JoyRides at the last minute to accommodate changes in traffic, weather, and other safety-related issues. We do our very best to communicate any changes in advance, and usually do so on Facebook.
Helmets are required on all JoyRides. We also ask that you “share the road” with other cyclists, vehicles, and pedestrians. We give a safety briefing at each JoyRide to get everyone up-to-speed on hand signals, the route, and upcoming events.
