Type
Road, Social
Level
Novice
Rides suitable for cyclists who are new to the sport (or who have not been on a bike for some years), family-friendly rides or any riders that feel a need for some mentoring. Note: please note that minors under the age of 16 cannot participate in rides unless accompanied by a parent or guardian. Families with children should, in any event, confirm with the ride leader ahead of time that the ride will be suitable for their needs.

Intermediate
Targeted towards riders who have a few years in the saddle, who have developed some riding confidence and fitness and feel ready to move to the next level. Could attract more experienced riders who are looking for a relaxed or less aggressive ride.

Advanced
Limited to experienced riders with superior bike handling skills and who are comfortable with a fast pace (probably including single and/or double pace-line riding) and/or hilly terrain, and the possibility of heavily trafficked roads. Advanced rides are less likely to be "no-drop" unless identified as such.

A CYCLING HUB FOR HOUSTON - HTX BIKE SOCIAL The goal of HTX Bike Social is to promote cycling in Houston by providing a hub for avid cyclists of all types. Whether you are a CAT 1 ... moreracer, MTB junky, daily commuter or like to cruise your bike a few times a week, you'll find rides posted here for every kind of cycling.

If you want to host a ride or know of cycling events and cycling friendly events, you are free to post here. If you have questions regarding any cycling related issues, events or rides feel free to ask. There are so many friendly and knowledgeable people in this group that you should find whatever it is your looking for.

All members are free to add friends. The only real requirement is that submitted members are actually avid cyclists. This is not a measure to exclude any one, it's a measure to assure that rides that are created and posted go as planned. Often times new riders aren't capable of keeping posted speeds or have maintenance issues etc. that avid cyclist are prepared to deal with and they also know their limits, thus smooth riding occurs.

HTX BIKE SOCIAL, our premier event is the second Friday of every month. The ride location starts may vary but the roll out time is always 7:20pm so stay posted. Event invites will go out to all members 1 week prior to rides. HTX Bike social Ride is a cruising speed ride that typically maintains 15mph. Lights are required by logic and law. Helmets are always suggested for your safety.

See you guys out there on two wheels!
