Maats loves to ride, sharing time together on the bike to connect, to meet new people and catch up with friends. Maats invites you to join our Amsterdam community rides!

What is our Advanced Ride? 

This ride is meant for more experienced riders, who are comfortable with maintaining a faster pace.

• Faster pace, average speed: 30-32 km/h
• Cruising speed (on longer straight segments): ~34-35 km/h
• This ride type is a bit more challenging, but still meant as a community ride where a no drop policy applies.
  
• Ride leaders will still lead the ride but do not ride at the front all the time - all riders can take turns to ride at the front position. 

If someone is struggling, we'll bring the pace down a little bit. If some people have to wait at a traffic sign, we all wait at the other side of the street. In Dutch there is a saying: “Samen uit, samen thuis”, which means we’ll stick together and leave no one behind, from departure till arrival. 

General Rules

• Helmet & click pedals are mandatory
• Make sure you're aware of the signaling on the bike (voor, tegen, paaltje etc.)
• Respect the indicated pace 

• Respect traffic rules

What is the level? What do we expect from you? 

Although we love all cyclists, Maats Rides might be unsuitable for absolute beginners. If you register for our rides, we expect you to be able to ride continuously (no breaks) for a minimum of 2+ hours on the indicated paces. Experience with group rides is a plus but not a requirement.

Routes:

The routebook for our rides consists of approx. eight fixed routes that are well planned and recon'ed from time to time. Route lengths vary from 60-80km. Routes are designed for variety, safety and an optimal riding experience with groups. Routes will not be adjusted midway unless there are construction works etc. This will always happen in consultation with the ride leader.
