MPBC Ride Leaders post official club rides to this calendar on a weekly basis throughout the year. To sign up for a ride, please provide the leader your mobile number and emergency contact using the email and/or phone number listed in the posting. Riders must be MPBC club members to attend a posted or a Show & Go ride but we are allowing one free ride for potential members. If you would like to join MBPC you can do so by using our online form found here.
Typical rides are held (Tue/Thu/Sat/Sun & Holidays) at 8:30 am in the warmer months and 9 am in the cooler months. Ride times do vary, so please check our ride calendar for actual start times.

| Notes: Lets keep it simple. Loops around Great River at a C level speed. Roughly 16 to 20 miles. Flat terrain. No deli stop. Please bring a snack. No restroom stop but there are restrooms in the LIDL Supermarket across from the starting point before and after the ride for your convenience. Rain, wet pavement, or forecast of rain cancels the ride. If you will be joining me, please send me your name, cell phone number, and emergency cell phone number by 7:00 PM the night before the ride. Thank you for your interest. | ||||||
