Peloton Group Rides

The Peloton Group rides are geared toward riders who have been training for a good part of the season and who have increased their stamina and strength already. Read the ride descriptions carefully to understand the anticipated mileage and pace.

Peloton Group riders should be capable of riding on flat terrain, such as the American River Trail, for a distance of 60 miles in about 3.5 hours (17mph).

What Our Members Are Saying

Cycle Folsom is the most versatile Cycling groups I’ve ever been associated with. They are a perfect blend of riders. There are serious climbing rides as well as more flat rides. There are training opportunities from the racing level to the beginning group riders. Their Grupetto Teaching Series is ingenious and emphasizes their focus on safety and developing new riders. The Performance and Peloton groups emphasize teamwork and excellence. This is a very accomplished club.

I started riding with Cycle Folsom a few years ago, and I loved the competitive camaraderie and friendships I developed in the club. Everybody was always friendly, helpful, the rides were challenging and often epic. We are lucky to have great places to ride in our community and an amazing club to share them with.
