Monday Night Mingle Ride

Hi Minglers! The plan is to begin our rides on April 15 at 6 pm so arrive at 5:40pm to be ready and chat with old friends and make new ones. We’ll be meeting at Lawrence Beer Company, 826 Pennsylvania, Lawrence, KS. in their outside patio area. There is plentiful parking in the area, and Keith Muller of Cycle Works will meet us there for any last minute mechanical adjustments if needed before we take off!  Please have front and rear lights!  We’re looking forward to seeing you. Check back to this page in case the weather forecast changes, but it looks great for now! Mingle Ride Facebook page

Helmets and red rear lights are required, headsets are prohibited, and please carry identification and emergency contact information.


Weekly Rides are for club members only. A non-member may participate in one free ride before joining and must, prior to the ride, sign a "non-member one ride waiver" found in the drop down options once clicking New Member Signup on the home page.  A ride leader can assist with this process.


The route that we take is approximately 10-12 miles with a few mild hills, but majority is pretty flat. Our pace is around 10-14 mph, always being respectful of every persons comfort level. This is a NO DROP ride, meaning we will always be there for you at any pace. After the ride all are welcome to gather socially but is not required. Our group is intended to support new riders and riders who just want to be a part of a cycling community without the pressure of high performance. Our group welcomes every skill level; there are no strict requirements other than having a reliable bike, a helmet and a mindset to come out and ride your bike with others. We are looking forward to a fun 2024 season.


Inclement weather:
Leaders have the discretion to cancel or delay the start of a ride due to inclement weather or other unexpected conditions. In addition, the leader may, upon arriving at the start location, determine that riding conditions are unsafe and cancel the ride.  
Cancelled rides due to Inclement weather will be posted on chainrings and on the FB page.
