new to boulder

Ay! so i'm brand new to boulder, a freshman at the university of colorado. I've been here for about two months but i still really haven't met any people to go on rides with. I ride fixed and it would be awesome to find some people to ride with on a casual or even face paced ride (given im still getting used to the altitude). That being said I don't really care if you ride fixed, single or even a road just as long as your down to have some fun. sooo if you wanna ride PM me!

Welcome to Boulder! Are you female and do you have a road bike? If yes to both, Title Nine women's cycling club is having their open house ride on Sunday. Meet at the store downtown at 10:00, helmet & road bike required, no guys sorry.

Otherwise, the Rocky Mountain Cycling Club (https://www.rmccrides.com/index.html) has rides all over the front range, their sunday ride is flatter, their saturday ride is hillier, you can join them for 3 rides before they ask you to join the club. I've seen people riding their fixies on the sunday ride.

My experience, having moved here a year and a half ago, is it's hard to find clubs in boulder that are sport/recreational rather than race oriented. Bicycle Village has a weekend morning ride (can't remember which day).

Just a random comment from some people I've met from boulder.

They are downright barbaric with their treatment of drunk drivers in Boulder county.
Don't take any risks with that.
