Welcome! The RMCC is a premier road bicycling club for Colorado and the Rocky Mountain region, offering a full range of rides for the active, enthusiastic cyclists of intermediate and advanced levels and interests.

Ride Starters Needed!

We have two rides in May that still need ride starters.  These include the May 17th ride out of Castle Rock and the May 25th ride out of Exit 255.  Many of our regular ride starters cannot start these rides, so we really need someone to step up to lead them.  Starting a ride is really not much more difficult that riding it, and it is biggest way that you can help the club.  Please contact Jim Kraychy if you can lead one of these rides (or if you would like to lead another ride).  Thanks in advance for the help!

Rides for May 10 - May 16

Saturday's ride starts in Boulder and heads up Coal Creek Canyon through Wondervu, then descends either Boulder Canyon or St. Vrain Canyon.  The Sunday ride starts in Wiggins and heads east through Ft. Morgan and optionally to Hillrose. Many members consider this to be the best flat ride on the entire schedule!  Details...
Also, don't forget the Tuesday Night Hillclimb, Wednesday Handlebar & Grill Ride and the Thursday Erie Ride.

May Club Meeting & Ultra-Long Distance Seminar

Monday, May 12th at 5:30pm.  As usual, we will meet at the Flagship REI.  Following the meeting, at 6:30, will be a seminar focusing on Ultra-Randonneuring.  The evening will focus on training, nutrition, and riding strategies to be successful on rides of 300K and longer. 

Mountain Climbs Database Updated

Several new climbs have recently been added to the Colorado Mountain Climbs database, including Colorado National Monument, Ute Pass, Magnolia, Deer Creek, and Lookout Mountain.  If you haven't checked the database out before, have a look!

Tuesday Night Hillclimb

Now that evenings are longer and generally more mild, the Tuesday Night Hillclimb will begin.  This ride runs out of Golden every Tuesday at 6:00PM.  As with the other weeknight night rides, the group often heads out for food/beverage afterward.  Please join us!  More details

April Newsletter

The April newsletter is available online here. 

Jerseys are here!

If you ordered a club jersey back in January, you should have received it by now.  If you have not, please contact Dan Shields.  Also, note that we did order extras; if you forgot to order one, or if you are new to club in the last couple of months, you can purchase the jersey through the Midlife Cycling Store

Bicycle Tour of Colorado

Year after year, one of the most popular tours among RMCC members is the Bicycle Tour of Colorado.  This year's version tours the southwestern part of the state.  Enjoy the majestic peaks of the San Juan Range, glimpse abandoned mining towns of the old west, gaze up the slickrock walls of ancient canyons, and do it all while riding your bicycle.  Learn more...
