BCOR™ Group Ride
How it Works:
BCOR Group Ride is designed for riders of ALL abilities. As you may notice from our shorts and jerseys (or kits), we've NEVER taken ourselves too seriously. We are passionate about riding and want to share it with you!
Cycling is the perfect low-impact high calorie burning exercise. Our riders generally burn 1,500-5,000 calories on a single ride ranging from 10-60+ miles (depending on the group you choose - Beginner, Intermediate, or Advanced.) This gives us a license to eat and drink whatever we want without any of the guilt.
Our rides are friendly and cater to all ability levels, especially the needs of NEW riders to the sport. BCOR Group Ride is the perfect way to "learn how to ride a bike again", burn thousands of calories, tour many of Colorado's best cycling routes (with vehicle support or SAG), sample tasty foods and beverages, and best of all this no-drop group ride is social. Grab your bike, grab a friend, and make a day of it. BCOR Group Ride is addicting!
