2024 Season Starts Now!

MIVA is here to rescue you from living vicariously through the countless streaming services you have subscribed to over the winter months. Time to get off the couch or escape your "pain cave" and experience the sun, fresh air and the open road.

The 2024 MIVA cycling season begins this weekend, Feb 17th, with the Coal City Cycles Gravel Ride. It might seem a bit ambitious to start this early in the year, but gravel riders are a durable bunch typically undeterred by a little moisture and the prospect of scraping off a "dusting" of mud. Please see the club calendar or "Upcoming Events" on the MIVA home page for details.


The group road riding season starts gently on April 7th with the weekly Sunday Social rides. On the following weekend, April 14th, the Sunday Social ride will be this year’s Spring Challenge, which will bring your legs completely out of hibernation. We have three "Challenges" scheduled this year.

Tuesday April 16th starts the popular weekly Development Rides, where you can learn and practice group riding skills.

After a hiatus for a couple of years, Strava Challenges are back on the menu, starting April 4th. Details still to be announced.

The 2024 MIVA calendar on the MIVA website is full!. There may be adjustments over time so please check the MIVA website for changes or cancellations near to events. Also, the club has been using Discord for informal chit chat amongst our members and with the cycling community at large. On the MIVA Discord site one can find buy-and-sell, community events and informal non-club rides.
