Bike Streets Free Group Rides
Monthly group rides through Denver neighborhoods on low-stress bike-friendly routes curated by Bike Streets. Free, fun, and designed for maximum comfort.
The vibe
Low-stress, high fun
Bike Streets Free Group Rides take the organization’s expertise in mapping low-stress cycling routes and turns it into a monthly social experience. Each ride explores a different Denver neighborhood using the quietest, most bike-friendly streets available — the same routes that Bike Streets has carefully curated for their popular cycling maps and app. The result is a group ride that feels relaxed and safe, even for people who normally wouldn’t dream of riding in traffic.
The low-stress route philosophy means these rides stick to residential streets, bike paths, and protected lanes, avoiding the high-traffic arterials that keep many people from riding in the city. The pace is mellow and social, and the rotating neighborhoods mean you’ll discover corners of Denver you didn’t know existed. Each ride is essentially a guided tour of the best cycling infrastructure in the city, led by the people who literally wrote the map.
These rides are free and open to everyone, making them one of the lowest-barrier entry points into group cycling in Denver. If you’ve been curious about riding in the city but nervous about traffic, this is the perfect introduction. Check the Bike Streets events page for upcoming dates and starting locations. Any bike works, families are welcome, and the only thing you need to bring is a willingness to explore your city at a pace that lets you actually see it.
