Atlantic City Group Rides

For Social Riders

If you ride for the conversation as much as the exercise, Atlantic City's social group rides are your scene. These rides are typically no-drop (nobody gets left behind), at a conversational pace, and often end with coffee or breakfast at a local spot. The boardwalk and downbeach connector are popular routes — flat, scenic, and easy to chat on. Social rides usually happen on weekend mornings and draw a mix of locals and visitors.

For Fitness and Training Riders

If you want to push yourself and ride with stronger cyclists, Atlantic City's training groups offer structured rides with pace lines, intervals, and longer distances. These groups typically ride Atlantic Avenue and the downbeach connector, logging 20-40 miles at 16-20+ mph. Training rides are usually drop rides (you need to keep up), so make sure you can match the advertised pace before joining. They're a great way to improve your fitness and learn group riding skills.

For Beginners and Casual Cyclists

New to cycling or just getting back on the bike? Atlantic City's beginner-friendly groups are welcoming, patient, and focused on fun over speed. These rides are short (5-10 miles), slow-paced, and often include stops for photos, snacks, and rest. The boardwalk and Gardner's Basin are common routes. Beginner groups are perfect for building confidence, learning group riding etiquette, and meeting other new riders.

For Families

Family group rides in Atlantic City are designed for parents and kids riding together. These rides are short, slow, and focused on fun stops — the aquarium, playgrounds, ice cream shops. Routes avoid car traffic and stick to the boardwalk, Gardner's Basin, and Brigantine paths. Family rides are a great way to get kids excited about cycling and meet other cycling families.
