Rides this Week

Because of the extremely hot weather, all rides have been switched to mornings this week.

Wednesday 7/24, 9:00 am, Legal Tender to Jefferson City and back

Thursday 7/25, 10:30 am, out and back from the parking lot behind Four Georgians school

Saturday 7/27, 9:00 am, Leave from Reber Broadwater Cupola Park for a or loop through Montana City and East Helena. The frontage road between Montana City and Clancy is closed to through traffic for at least two weeks. This means we can't do our normal out and back to Clancy.

Helena Bicycle Club 2024 Ride Calendar

Tuesday evening rides leave from the Reber Broadwater Cupola Park on Colonial Drive. Thursday evening rides leave from the Four Georgians school back parking lot off McHugh Drive (behind Tiny's Gym). Both will leave at 6:00 pm, but that time may be adjusted depending on traffic

These generally will be 15 to 20 miles at a moderate pace.  Routes will be announced in  reminder emails but may be changed at the last minute depending on wind and road construction.  As the summer goes on and people get busy with other things, we probably will cut back to once a week or maybe every other week.  As the weather warms up, we may switch the Tuesday ride to the mornings.

We will have some shorter, casual rides, usually on Wednesday mornings. Some will start in Helena. Some will involve taking bikes somewhere else. Some will involve food at the end or in the middle. As specific rides are planned, they will be posted here and announced by email.

We will have our traditional longer group rides, including the York Burger Boogie the Boulder Ice Cream Ride on July 4, and a ride on the Trail of the Coeur d'Alenes.

Show and Go Rides: Members who want to organize a ride or who are planning a ride and want some company can use the club email list to announce it. If you are planning far enough ahead, we can get it on the ride calendar.  If you need to know how to use the email list or want a ride on the calendar, send an email to president@helenabicycleclub.org.
