Group Road Bike Rides

We will start each ride with a Meet & Greet for riders.  We will increase the ride mileage as the season progresses.  Rides are free and are held on vaious Sundays during the spring and early summer.  All rides are weather permitting so be sure to check the Farina's Facebook page for the most up to date information on weather related cancellations.

Please RSVP to contactus@farinas.com one or two days before each ride so we may know how many riders to expect and may plan accordingly.
