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.

Flat Ride - Only 650' elevation over 50 miles!

Park "near" the UNM Observatory off Tucker Av NE, avoiding construction.

Ride starts on Tucker W, North Diversion Channel N, Paseo Del Norte Tr W, Rio Grande N to Alameda Open Space (regroup, restroom.)

Then Rio Grande S across Central & work over to Riverside Tr & around Chavez Loop, (P-Tree opportunity,) Rio Bravo W to Riverside Tr N & Rio Grande N, Paseo E, NDC back to Tucker & cars.

No coffee stop on this ride - bring plenty of water.

Suggested après-ride lunch venue is Bosque Brewing at Girard & Central.

This is an "all paces" ride, and the riders will naturally migrate into a moderate group and a faster group- ride at your own comfort level.

This ride presents many opportunities to shorten it, and feel free to do so. Just please communicate with the ride leader if you ride less than 50 miles.
