Highlands Ranch Cycling Club (HRCC)
Well-organized Denver-area road cycling club with structured training, weekly group rides for all abilities, and regular clinics. Based at Mike's Bikes in Highlands Ranch.
The vibe
Serious training, supportive club
Highlands Ranch Cycling Club has built a reputation as one of the more organized clubs in the Denver metro — the kind of club where “we have a structured training program” actually means something. Weekend group rides leave from Mike’s Bikes of Highlands Ranch on Saturday and Sunday mornings, with different ability levels so you’re not dropped on the first climb.
The club participates in major Colorado rides throughout the season and regularly hosts sponsor-clinics covering advanced techniques — bike handling, climbing efficiency, paceline riding. It’s the kind of resource that separates a club from a loose group of people who happen to ride together.
For newer riders, HRCC is welcoming in the way that well-run clubs tend to be: structured enough that you know what to expect, but not so serious that you feel like you’re auditioning. Check ridehrcc.com for the current schedule and how to plug into your first group ride.
