| Tuesday | Weekly road ride: leave from the shop at 6:00 sharp, 25+/- mile routes, 15 +/- mph average, come explore the rolling hills of Iredell County. A new route every week! In the winter, bring your trainer, bike, towel and drinks and we'll supply the TV and the video. Typically we go for 45 minutes to an hour. When the time changes in the spring, we will start riding outside as weather and sun permits. |
| Thursday | Weekly mountain bike ride: leave from the shop at 6:00 sharp, ride to the Signal Hill Trail (About 2 miles on the road), ride two 4 mile laps and return to the shop. With winter weather, we try to ride most weeks but it's a good idea to phone ahead especially if the weather has been questionable. |
| Everyday | We have compiled some of our
favorite road rides online for anyone that is looking for new
routes. All routes start from First Flight Bikes. Route 1 - One of my favorite rides. Fairly flat and fast beginning with a very good climb in the middle and rolling ending. This ride gives you a little bit of everything the road can throw at you. Route 2 - Rolling roads will keep you smiling the whole time. The section on 64 is a little busy with traffic Route 3 - The first 3/4 of this ride is hilly but you are rewarded with a long ride on Midway Rd which is one of the fastest roads around Route 4 - Some rolling hills with a couple longer flat roads. We use this route to make most of our rides especially longer rides. If you try all of these and are looking for more, Wes is always trying to add more routes on his profile located here
