Ride Description:

Bike Thursday is a weekly ride for cyclists that enjoy riding at a slower pace of between 10-12.5 mph.  Our routes are usually in the western suburbs, but could be in other areas.  All rides are scenic.   After the ride we gather for a picnic lunch at or near the start location.  Sometimes there are stores available to purchase food, other times we bring lunch. 

Our rides are between 20-25 miles and take over 2+ hours.  At the start we break up into 3 groups of 12-14 riders each.  Each group has a leader and the groups stay together using human arrows and a sweep.  

Non-members of CRW are welcome to ride with us and experience what Bike Thursday offers.  If you like our rides however, and wish to continue to ride with us, we expect you to become a CRW member.
