First time on this ride? Here’s the drill
Bring
a helmet, front and rear lights (it's a dark-hours ride), water, a spare tube or patch kit, a way to pay for the stop.
Arrive
Ten or fifteen minutes before 5:30 pm. Tell whoever's leading that you're new.
Pace
Expect 19–20 mph on average: fast — for riders who race or train. It's a drop ride: if you can't hold the pace, you'll finish alone. Fine if you know your speed. Not a first ride.

Look at the host's website the day of — that's where cancellations, weather calls and start changes get posted.

About the Tuesday Night Rubber Mallet group ride

Tuesday Night Rubber Mallet is a road group ride in Bend, OR. It rolls every Tuesday at 5:30 pm from Jackson's Outpost at The Grove.

A spirited Tuesday road ride that rotates three routes. Not a no-drop ride, but the group regroups two or three times and teaches cooperative riding instead of a free-for-all. Riders should be self-sufficient. It is not affiliated with WebCyclery even though it used to start there.

Checked Sep 15, 2026 against source 1, source 2, source 3. Schedules change. Confirm with the host before you go.

I do the miles. You decide who they’re for.

In 2027 I ride 10,000 miles, all on the bike, every one of them for queer communities. You pledge a few cents a mile and pick which org it goes to. It starts January 1.
