Weekly Rides
Tuesdays: Social Ride After-Work Loop (starting 31/03/26)
📌 Langer Anger 42, 69115 Heidelberg, Germany
⏰ Every Tuesday, 6:00 PM
Our Tuesday after-work ride is relaxed, social, and conversation-friendly. ☀️ We start at “Ruprecht Rides” in Bahnstadt. 🦖 Everyone is explicitly welcome, especially people who are new to cycling, ride a gravel bike, or do not feel comfortable in more performance-oriented groups. We choose the pace so that even the slowest rider can enjoy the ride. However, you should be able to ride at around 22 km/h on flat terrain and in a group. On climbs, everyone rides at their own pace. Please always pay attention to your own safety and the safety of others. For us, that also includes wearing a helmet. Feel free to message one of the admins if you have any questions :)
🔦 Please bring both a front and rear light :)

Wednesdays: Speedy Ride (starting 01/04/26)
📌 Uferstraße 4, Heidelberg
⏰ Every Wednesday, 6:00 PM
If you have been riding for a while and are looking for more of a challenge, this is the right group for you.
The route will usually be around 60 to 80 km long, with a maximum of 1,000 metres of elevation gain, and the pace will be around 24 to 30 km/h. We make sure to look out for everyone, and after climbs we briefly wait at the top until the group is back together. At the same time, the university sports social ride also takes place (https://onlineanmeldung.hochschulsport.uni-heidelberg.de/oa_oeff/programm.php?s=s).
