The Midlife Cycling program has been incorporated into the 2010 Ride Schedule of the Rocky Mountain Cycling Club. A printed schedule may be obtained from the leader of any club ride or most bike stores along the Front Range.

Our coaches donate their time to bring new members into the club. Through the Intermediate Bike Training group, Midlife Cycling helps cyclists capable of riding 30-40 miles at 16-18 mph improve their riding up to a 16 mph Century (100 mile) ride. On certain designated club rides an experienced rider called a "domestique" will help new riders through the sign-in process, meet new riders, and make sure they do not get dropped from the group during the ride.

However, it is impractical to provide specific training to a group of riders spread all over the route. Group rides are an opportunity to enjoy the fellowship of other riders, meet potential ride partners, learn new cycling routes, and compare your progress with other riders. This is an Intermediate to Advanced cycling club so riders are expected to have experience riding in a group, be self-sufficient on rides, and have some commitment to cycling on a regular basis rather than being an occasional drop-in.
