Note that if any NEBC non members do not sign a waiver then it is NOT an official NEBC ride, just a general ride that you’re welcome to join at will.
Tuesday – Women’s Paceline Ride
For more information on the Tuesday Women’s Paceline Ride click here.
Departs at 6:00 pm from the Lexington Battle Green (Junction of Mass Ave and Bedford Road), May to August.
This is a paceline skills development ride for women. Every week there will be a clinic group (14-15 mph average pace) focusing on learning group riding skills, riding in the draft, and taking your turn at the front. The more experienced riders will separate into
speed groups, average speeds of 15-17, 17-19, and 19+ mph. This is an opportunity to ride in small groups with cyclists of similar abilities. Route lengths are 20 and 26 miles.
The ride's “no drop” policy means that speed groups stay as tight as a team time trail ride, with attacks allowed on the hills and regrouping at the summits of Strawberry hill and Paige hill! The 19+ group is the most aggressive, allowing attacks and drops. Non-members can save time by filling out this waiver in advance: http://www.nebc.us/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/NEBC-Multi-Release.pdf

Thursday – Hill Ride
This ride is open to members and non-members. Helmets required. Weather permitting the ride runs from the first Thursday of May to the last week of August. The ride leaves at 6pm sharp from the Cycle Loft car park in Burlington (directions below). We follow a 20-25 mi. loop, encompassing the gnarliest hills in the Boston Metro area (we’re talking gnarly with two g’s).
Low gears recommended. Since this is a training ride, no one will be dropped; we will ride an easy recovery pace between the hills, work hard up the hills, then regroup on the tops.
Waiver sign-in is required for non-NEBC members.
Directions: Meet at the parking lot next to the Cycle Loft at 43 Middlesex Turnpike, Burlington.
