Average ride speed is 13 mph for a 20 to 25 mile street lit route that takes a little over 2 hours. The route is typically posted on the site before the ride. The ride is designed to be social and efficient. Fixed, Mountain and Road Bikes make up the majority - with an occasional BMX, Cruiser and Comfort Bike making the journey.
Tour Lancaster with us!
Helmets, headlights, and tail lights are strongly recommended.

CYCOLOGY - The Lancaster Ride is designed for a group of cyclists to ride socially and safely around Lancaster. It is not a race although we have been known to stop and throw events in the middle of the ride. It is designed as a no drop ride meaning that if you have a problem the entire group stops and waits. We advise all riders to show up with their bikes in good working order (meaning tuned up) so as to know disrupt the progress of the group. We also ask every rider to carry a spare tube, inflation device and tools in order to handle problems as the arise. The most common problem is flat tires. Even if you cannot change a flat tire yourself there will be someone in the group to assist you quickly and efficiently. It is not the groups responsibility to provide you with a spare tube so be prepared. If you elect not to bring a tube - bring a cell phone for a ride home.
We ask that everyone who shows up for the ride to be experienced in the ability to ride 20 miles. The group is slow and social but it is not designed to be your Everest. If the furthest you have ridden a bike is 5 miles than this is probably not the ride you are looking for. The wind can make sections seem miserable for a few minutes then we turn and the ride becomes effortless - so is the AV. We do the best we can with what we've got. All in all CYCOLOGY - The Lancaster Ride is the most fun cycling event in the valley. Come join us it promises to be a good time!!!
