After 15+ months of a pandemic, the DCR is excited to welcome you back to the streets of Denver! Having hosted 16 summers of Wednesday night bike rides –  it seemed like the "right" time to switch it up and try out a THURSDAY NIGHT SOCIAL RIDES for our 17th summer. We hope you'll join us for some bike riding fun! This year we're skipping the costumes and the bars!
THIS WEEK: MEET AT SHOEMAKER PLAZA (BEHIND REI) @8P •  RIDE @8:30PM

THINGS YOU SHOULD BRING ON THE RIDE TONIGHT!
Light up your ride! The more lights the better! Having lights on your bike is the first and best defense when riding your bike at night to see, and be seen! Front and back lights are a must, or you can add some bling lights to your ride!
Denver has become "Bike Theft Central" and this is an issue that's grown significantly over the past few years. If you want to protect your ride, make sure you've got a lock (not one of those cheapy cable locks).
Here are a few locks we love
Your skull isn't as hard as the pavement, and over the years, we've seen plenty of folks mash their mellon while riding bikes. You can easily reduce your risk of a head injury by wearing a helmet! Try one, you'll like it!
This is the one I wear
Common sense is the number one thing you should bring to these rides. The Golden Rule applies, to both riders on the ride, but to all that we encounter on a summer thursday night! This is a CRITICAL MANNERS RIDE!

Please check out the HOW WE ROLL PAGE. There, you can refresh yourself about what the expectations are as a
bicycle rider on the Denver Cruiser Ride. The more we step up and act like "adults," the more likely that bicycling in
Denver can be seen as something more than just a passing fad – or ignored entirely by the city, because, in the past,
some have viewed much of our brand of social riding, as a bunch of yahoos on bikes - go figure!

There are so many awesome groups riding bikes these days. As part of the evolution of what we do, our own Bike City Magazine has taken stock of group rides both in Denver and beyond. Check them out by clicking on the Pick Your Poison link below:
