About the Friday Evening Bike Ride group ride

Friday Evening Bike Ride is a social group ride in Calgary, Canada. It rolls every Friday at 6:15 pm local time from Heritage Park.

A weekly easy evening spin around the Glenmore Reservoir in Calgary, about 15 km on paved pathways. It leaves from the Heritage Park lot after work. Run by a hiking Meetup group, so expect a mixed-ability crowd rather than a training ride.

Checked Oct 1, 2026 against source 1, source 2. 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.
