Welcome to the All American Bikes Shop Ride, based in Maryland, USA! We are organized from Strava groups AABikes Shop Ride and Frederick County Roadies. Central MD terrain is hilly; and the Zwift Routes we ride on are also hilly.

We are delighted to offer a cooperative tempo group ride that now also includes sprints. The ride leader however will always maintain a steady tempo through the sprint sections. Those preferring to ride at a steady pace will be able to do so with the leader. Sprinters can regroup to the beacon after sprinting.

The ride warms up over the first 10 minutes from 2 W/Kg up to 2.75 W/Kg. We then hold that pace and try to do so with discipline, in fairness to all attending!

We aim to host a predictable ride that is interesting, enjoyable, and a great workout. Expect to be encouraged; if you find yourself unable to stay with the group due to the challenging terrain, please consider riding on anyways and forming a coalition with others. We do have a sweeper and we don’t want riders to fall off, but it may happen due to the challenging terrain. In other words, you are not a failure if you at some point fall behind. We will do our best to help you and encourage you. And if you can hold 2.75 for 60 minutes, you should be able to perform great for this ride.
