Shop Rides
Redbeard Bikes shop rides re-started in the spring of 2023!
Weather permitting, we organize weekly Prospect Park laps, and one monthly long ride to Ranger Station/Piermont (with variants).
Prospect Park laps end with coffee at Cuppa Hive on 15th Street and 8th Avenue in Park Slope.
(Thank you for the warm welcome and delicious coffee, Cuppa Hive team!)
Ride details are posted to our Strava club ("Redbeard Bikes").
Ride with us to discover new roads and make new friends!

MORE INFO ABOUT PROSPECT PARK LAPS:
We meet at 7:45am at Grand Army Plaza entrance, just inside the park at the grassy triangle before the park roadway.
We roll out at 8:00am for 5-6 laps at a moderate pace (about 16 mph), with the possibility to split into 2 groups (faster & slower) depending on who shows up.
If you or someone you know is new to group riding, our park ride is the perfect opportunity to get comfortable riding with a group in a low-pressure situation! Invite a friend!
We will go for nearby coffee and eats after the ride.
A few rules:
Participating riders must be at least 18 years of age.
Helmets are required. No exceptions!
No headphones, earbuds, speakers, etc. No aerobars, no throttle e-bikes.
Rain cancels.
