Ride Schedule and Routes
Saturdays
Our Rise & Shine Bread Ride launches from the RideSouth shop at 7:30 AM, year round. We have at least two routes so everyone can participate. Choose the Bay Ride for a relaxing 12-25 mile ride through the Pelahatchie Bay area, mostly on bike trails! Choose the 36 mile Rez Ride for a spirited ride around the beautiful Ross Barnett Reservoir, including a scenic stretch along the Natchez Trace! Return by 10:00 AM for a slice of hot, freshly made oat bran bread, right out of the oven, or add some miles on your own and explore Rankin County!
Sundays
On Sundays at 2:00 PM from the RideSouth shop, Bay Rides are popular, as is the Yogi Ride, a 40 mile loop with some great hills! The ride turns at Yogi Bear Park in Pelahatchie and includes some great rural roads in Rankin County! Call ahead to find out the route of the day or just show up and ride!
Weekdays
Often we launch from the RideSouth shop at 7:30 AM or 6:00 PM. The Sunrise Series runs through the summer on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday mornings. The Sunset Series runs on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons. Call ahead the day before to see if rides are planned and discuss the route scheduled.
Annual Events
Some annual events to watch for are the Natchez or Bust Ride in early October, the Birthday Challenge Ride in early November, the Chief Ladiga/Silver Comet Ride in November and the Signature Ride in late March. We also are planning to ride in the Ridgeland Christmas Parade in early December! Lots of fun and challenging events for everyone!
