Get Ready to Ride: Thursday Night Social Group Rides Coming Soon!

Excitement is building for our weekly, Thursday night social group rides, and we're almost at the starting line! This unique series of cycling events aims to be a vibrant addition to our community, offering riders of all levels a chance to explore, engage, and enjoy the thrill of riding around South Bend and Michiana together. While we're fine-tuning the last few details to ensure everything is in good shape for launch, we're eager to spread the word and working to gather a passionate crew to bring this vision to life.

In collaboration with South Bend Bike Garage and ProForm Bike Shop*

Find your ride at The Rollout, coming summer of 2024!

Those of all ages, riding abilities, and riding all types of bikes will be invited to converge at one location (likely to be at the corner of 933 and Angela) every Thursday evening beginning May 2.

  • Are you a newbie to group rides?

  • A parent looking for a safe, off-street route to ride with the kiddos?

  • Looking for some enjoyable exercise, outdoors and around other people?

  • Training for an upcoming event, race, or want to ride competitively?

The Rollout will seek to have something for you!
