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

A flat ride, starting at the Los Ranchos / Journal Center Rail Runner station parking lot and riding south to Belen; stop for lunch at Pete's Café. After lunch, ride the short distance to the Belen Rail Runner station and take the train back to the start in Albuquerque. This route stays east of the river early on and avoids Isleta Blvd and it's busy traffic and poor road / shoulder conditions. The early start time ensures enough time to ride to Belen, enjoy lunch, and catch the Rail Runner north-bound departure at 12:30 PM. The specific route is available at https://ridewithgps.com/routes/37278325 .
