NMTS Ride Schedule

NOTE: In addition to these one time rides, the club has recurring rides most days of the week. To view them, choose the "Weekly Rides" link in the menu at your left.

Pace is the speed, plus or minus one, that will be maintained on flat terrain with no wind. Distance refers to miles traveled in a day; on multi-day rides it refers to total miles for the trip, and a daily average is calculated from that.

Rides with a light-green background occur over multiple days

HELMETS CSPC, Snell or ANSI Approved Helmets are REQUIRED for all NMTS rides.
EBIKES Class 1 E-bikes are welcome where conditions allow, and at the ride leader's discretion. Class 2 and Class 3 E-bikes are not permitted on NMTS rides.

Ebikes OK?

Yes, see conditions above

Routes, registration, etc. is found here: https://eltourdetucson.org/el-tour-de-tucson/

Registration for 102 or 57 miles is $195.

For hotel I’m recommending Doubletree by Hilton Tucson Downtown Convention Center.

Room with 2-queens is $151 + $10/night parking. WiFi is free and there is a bar. It’s 2 minutes by bike to the start of the ride.

102 miles starts at 7AM, 57 miles at 10AM. There’s also a 28 mile ride that starts elsewhere.

Club members have traditionally driven over on Wednesday or Thursday, sightsee/bike expo/warm-up ride Thursday/Friday, Tour De Tucson on Saturday, and return to ABQ Sunday.

So register, and partner up for driving & hotel. Please let me know when you sign up so we can all coordinate meeting for drinks, meals, activities, etc.

(FYI, ride leader is opting for 57 miles.)

As of 10/18/2021 we have 12 riders confirmed.
