COUREUR BRUSSELS
GROUPRIDES
We organize monthly group rides, open to everyone and free to join. Every 3rd saturday of the month we head out for a gravel group ride.Every 2nd Thrusday evening of the month we have a NEW afterwork road ride. We'll cruise through the Pajottenland on a fixed route, go full gas on Bruine Put and finish off in L'écluse Kiosk at Porte d'Anderlecht for a drink. These road rides are starting in April after our annual Tour of Flanders road season kick-off ride.
The idea behind these rides is simple: enjoying time on the bike in a relaxed and social setting. It’s not a race, but we do maintain a steady, enjoyable pace. More than anything, these rides are about meeting like-minded riders, sharing the experience on the road or gravel, and catching up afterwards over a good cup of coffee and/or drink. We also provide the basics to give your bike a quick rinse after the ride. From now on, we will host our rides on some selected and proven routes over the year. Convince this will make the rides more safe and accesible for everyone
