Tuesday & Saturday Ride Group

Posted on January 29, 2024 by Randy Senneff

Tuesday & Saturday Ride Group

Tuesday & Saturday are the typical days, but we use other days based on weather.

We ride all year long, weather permitting.

Start times are AM during the warmer months and PM during the cooler months.

We start from a variety of locations, mostly in Peoria County.

Ride length is about 20 miles in early season, increasing to 35 miles in summer.   Typically there is a mid-ride restroom & snack break.

Ride speed averages about 12 mph.  We regroup often and no one is dropped.

The weekly schedule is posted on the Illinois Valley Wheelm’n and the LO Riders of Peoria Facebook pages.

For questions, contact Steve Jensen at shjensen1@yahoo.com
