Arlington Bicycle Club (Team Quad)

Quad Cycles Group Rides (Road)

When: Saturdays & Sundays at 9:00 AM (April - Oct) and 10:00 AM (Nov - Mar) (see complete event list on Facebook)

Where: Quad Cycles, 1043 Massachusetts Ave., Arlington, MA 02476

Team Quad leads 40–60 mile group rides that take Mass Ave and the Minuteman Bikeway to the Bedford Depot, then through Concord, Carlisle, and back. Stop for a snack at Ferns and be back by early to mid afternoon. We also feature special event rides such as our summer Mt. Wachusett century and Fall Fondo.

All are welcome and no one is dropped. We divide into slow, medium and fast groups. Build your cycling skills, meet fellow riders, make new friends, and have a great time. Check out our standard route below, or click here for some of our many other routes listed in our Ride With GPS club site!

During the spring and summer, we also offer our Wednesday Night Hill Climb ride leaving at 6:00 pm. Each Wednesday we feature a different hill training ride.

All rides require riders to have their own bicycles and helmets. We cannot guarantee rental bikes or helmets will be available the day of the ride without a reservation.
