Louisville Sunday Group Bicycle Ride

The Louisville Bicycle Club-sponsored Sunday morning ride left from Vic's Classic Bikes at 9:15am. It was a bit chilly in the early part of the morning, but very comfortable with long sleeves.

Sunday Group Ride


Here Perry and Vic are making some last-minute adjustments to Perry's headset. A little bit of rain didn't stop the hardcore from gathering at nine o'clock on Sunday morning for the weekly 25 mile ride.


John rode over his Specialized Allez with a full Shimano 105 groupset.

Sunday Group Ride in Louisville

The ride today was relatively cool because we had good cloud cover for the whole morning. It was humid, but the sweat just makes it look like we are working harder!

We left Vic's Classic Bike Shop at around 9:15 and headed down towards the river.


Everybody's pumped up after the ride. Is that a double thumbs-up?


Speaking of pumped up, check out Bart Galloway and Perry Finely as they flex their calves for us normal people.


Here is the ride map, come out next Sunday:

Sunday Group Bicycle Ride in Louisville




Come ride any Sunday morning!




As any bicyclist knows, riding a bicycle can be a joyful experience. Riding bikes together with friends compounds that joy, and dangerous car drivers can make it disappear. Group rides magnify and combine your enthusiasm with that of fellow bicycle enthusiasts while protecting you, to some extent, from unsafe drivers. So come bike with us, there's safety in numbers!




Lisa Todd will protect you!




Last weekend was another great Sunday morning ride starting at 9am at Vic's Classic Bikes on Baxter. Many different groups take it at different speeds on this leisurely, 22 mile route. This makes it perfectly suited to anyone who has always wanted to try a group ride but hasn't gone for it yet because they don't know if they can keep up.

Here is the map of the ride:

There were many familiar faces from the Louisville Bicycle Club as well as some first-time riders and first-time bicycles, including this chromed-out Schwinn ridden by Justin Hughes and to be featured in a later post.




Come out and cycle!

Sunday morning ride with The Louisville Bicycle Club

I met with the Louisville Bicycle Club this morning at the Heine Brothers on Bardstown Road. Weather was great for a 25 mile ride up River road and through Indian Hills. Perry Finley was ride captain and rode sweep - at the tail end so no one gets dropped or someone if needs mechanical help. Well by the end of the ride I was riding sweep with Perry up in front just far enough so as not to lose sight of me. All in all a great time with some great folks. Thanks LBC!

Architecture Ride with Mark
















As the weather warms up, we're getting back into group rides on Sunday mornings. Yesterday afternoon, Mark, a veteran architect, asked if the ride was on for this morning and I agreed. We left the shop at 9:30 Sunday morning for an architectural tour of the Louisville seminaries, and had a great time. Join us next Sunday!

Sunday September 26th Ride







We met at the shop at 9:30am. Attendees were: Justin Hughes, Ryan O'Driscoll, David Prowell, the mysterious Tim, Nicholas Miller, and myself. We left the shop heading west on Christy, and followed Breckenridge to 9th street. We rode the river walk trail west into Portland. We traveled back East to pick up a tardy rider at Joe's crab shack and continued eastward along the bike path into Butchertown, following the Beargrass trail to Grinstead Drive and back to the shop. The weather was gorgeous.
