Meet at Emory Adams Park for a relaxed group ride with Making Miles Matter and local cyclists. It is open to anyone training for the Hancock Horizontal Hundred, easing back into riding, or simply seeking good company, and everyone sets their own pace. Helmets are strongly encouraged, and lights are recommended if daylight may be limited; rides usually finish before dark depending on the season and route. There is also a raffle tied to the Hancock Horizontal Hundred 2026. Share the Tuesday Shop Ride on Facebook each week to earn an entry, then participate in the HHH ride and your entry will be tracked.
