High Road Cycling / Major Taylor DMV Sunday Old School Base Miles Ride



High Road Cycling / Major Taylor DMV 

Will host "Old School Base Miles" Rides 

Every Sunday 

From November 7th through January 30th 


We'd like to thank everyone that joined us, 

it's been too cold to hold a few of the last rides.

We'll bring more rides for the masses in the future.



"You have to learn to ride slow before you can ride fast" -Pope of Cycling

"leg speed before power" - Keith Jackson



Goal: A weekly ride to keep us connected, fit, and motivated through the colder months while building discipline, camaraderie and community through miles on the bike.

These rides will be safe, smooth, high cadence that respects fellow riders skills and the rules of the road, while providing old school winter base miles for general fitness or training.

Coffee @ 830AM

Roll @ 9AM


3210 Grace St NW Suite 100, Washington, DC 20007


Duration/Distance & Pace

All Levels:  2 hours or + /- 40 miles, 

This is a "real" Zone 2 ride, ie we'll keep HR and Wattage in the 60-75% range, ie fat burning (vs carb) and mostly conversational.  Pace will be reasonable, but there will not be "regrouping" other than 1 defined bathroom stop.
