Ride With Us - Potomac Pedalers Touring Club

Ride with
Potomac Pedalers

Distances for Potomac Pedalers rides can range from 10 miles to 75 miles and average speeds range from 8 to more than 20 miles per hour.

All of our rides are easily organized by ride class.

With a wide variety of options each week, we recommend that riders new to the Club start with a pace that is a level or two below where they think they are.

Ride Class Table

This table shows average riding speeds [mph], typical ride distances [miles], and intervals between rest stops [miles].

Rides that are classified as AA often use racing tactics , such as rotating pacelines, double-wide paceline formations, and occasional sprints. They also will drop people, only regrouping at points assigned by the ride leader(s). These rides are uncommon but exist from time to time.

Harvest Hundred

September 21, 2025

Join us on September 21st for our marquee fall event: the Harvest Hundred! Riders will have a choice of three routes that wind through the quiet rural roads in Virginia’s Piedmont region, filled with rolling hills, horse farms, and pastureland. At the end of day, join us for BBQ, beer, and wine at Barrel Oak Winery. Space is limited to the first 500 riders, so register today!

If you are looking for a ride and unsure where to start, please don't hesitate to contact us! We can even help find a buddy for your first ride or two until you are more familiar with the Club.
