President's Message

RIO Cycling Club is made up of a highly diverse and growing number of Albuquerque cyclists. Our objective is to provide a fun, safe, and inspiring atmosphere for local cyclists to get together and go for a ride. Some members race, most do not. Either way you're welcome. We have group rides flexible enough to meet your needs whether you're training for the next fundraising tour, trying to upgrade as a racer, or just want to get outdoors and ride with a group of friends. Our website and logo reflect the spirit of our club. Our goals include promoting safety and group cycling techniques, and providing an opportunity for cyclists of any fitness level to advance their skills. Join us for a ride this weekend!
