2013 Season Schedule
Monthly Calendar - - This is our monthly calendar, presented in standard "monthly calendar" format. You can tinker with it too, saving it to your own calendar, or mobile device.
Selected Ride Descriptions / Schedules
Chena Hot Springs Bicycle Classic - - An annual event for kids, families, enthusiasts, and hard-core go-fast types. This year (2013) will have online registration, coming soon..
Tour of Fairbanks Road Race - - A five stage road race, featuring the best courses available to us in the Interior.
AK Coffee Roasting Co. Mountain Bike Event -- If races scare you off, then give this a try. It's a five-stage mountain bike "event".  Good fun. Here are the details.
Tuesday Night Mountain Bike Rides - - Also known as "Doug Rides" after their namesake, Doug Burnside, the Tuesday Night rides are attended by mostly men and not enough women. Check the ride descriptions for ride ability levels, length, projected durations, etc.
Dirt Divas - - Women who ride mountain bikes on uneven terrain. Some skill is needed, but there are great early season skills clinics to attend and pick up those basic skills.  Meet Mondays at 6PM at Goldstream Sports.  Check out the Dirt Divas Schedule for ride info.
Women on Wheels - - A moderate to fast-paced series of road rides for women who like to push themselves a bit.  Check the WOW Schedule for starting places, ride lengths and routes.
Ladies of Leisure - - A decidedly mellower version of the WOW rides. Focus is on fun and sticking together as a group. Check the LOL Schedule for starting places, ride routes.
Women's Camp - - Mountain bike handling and skills clinics, ladies only.  Check out the Women's Camp Schedule.
Ladie's Road Skills Clinic - - Technique and skills clinic for road riding in a group. Safety, pace lines, hill climbing and more.  Ladies only.  Must be a FCC member or have one day membership. For details, see Ladies Road Riding Skills Clinic.
Points Series - - Racing with a twist. Participating in these selected events gets you points. Doing well gets you more points. Volunteering gets you points....it's easier if you just read about it here.
SCUM Rides - - Sounds bad, but the rides are fun. This group of men meet on UAF campus twice a week, and go at a pace that works for everyone. You'll have to attend a SCUM ride to find out where the name "SCUM" comes from.
Group Road Rides - - And then there's the "Group Road Rides" which are intended for road race training. The group starts fast and then turns the screws. Anyone who wants to learn and ride hard is welcome, provided you don't mind getting dropped. No offense intended, that's just the way it goes.
Sunday Winter Rides - - Starting the first week in November and going until the second week in April, this group meets at Ivory Jacks parking lot out in Goldstream. Soft, churned snow means a slow ride, hard pack means a pretty good pace. Rides are on trail as much as possible. Figure anywhere from one to five hours, your choice. Everyone is welcome.
