General Ride Information

State College Cycling offers group rides for road cyclists of various abilities. Rides start from several different locations in the State College area.  Terrain and routes vary weekly. If you're unsure which ride ride level to choose, start with an easier level than you normally ride. New riders are always welcome!

Tuesday "Slow and Easy" Rides

​​

Thursday Morning Rides

• In 2021, we are introducing Thursday morning rides. We're hoping to ride from a wider variety of starting locations, and perhaps have more time to socialize during and after the ride. Further information can be found on the "Route Info & Maps" subpage.

Century Ride

• A "Century Ride" is offered at the end of the ride season for those seasoned riders looking for a season-culminating event.
