Training Season 2026

Summer is here!  Our primary goal this summer is riding with good friends in our beautiful state of New Mexico.  The general plan this year is to setup a series of rides to support those training for longer distances as well as a shorter distance, social ride.  How this functions in practice will depend on the numbers for each.

Our key events this year (like this year) will be:

  • High Road to Santa Fe 9/19, where we ride from ABQ up to Santa Fe, have a nice lunch at El Parasol, then head to Santa Fe Brewing for some beverages and camaraderie, before taking the Railrunner back to ABQ.  Open to pushing it out, depending on interest.

Below is the rough schedule for the Saturday rides.  Our general schedule in years past has been to be build up with progressive rides with the peak training toward the end of August.  This year we are going to mix it up, however, and spread out the rides a bit, so the schedule below may shift around as we finalize our ride schedule.  Also, a few TBD rides in there!  Please suggest some rides, and we may juggle the some things around.

Whether the shorter ride happens on Saturday or Sunday will depend on numbers.  Our normal departure time is 6 am from the east end of Altura Park!
