Maats Cycling Culture
Maats loves to ride. Sharing time together on the bike to connect, meet new people, and catch up with friends.
Maats and ROSE shake hands for the very first time! Every month, Maats & Rose Circle host a Sunday Ride for our community to honor our first ever collab together with the ROSE pop-up event in each Maats store. You are invited!
This is a recurring monthly ride: once a month, Maats and ROSE roll out!
For these special Sundays, we adhere a pace of 28 km/h, known as our Flow Pace.
What is our Flow Ride?
This ride is meant for everyone who loves to share the passion of cycling together.
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
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.
Alba Optics
An iconic shape that we loved to wear, born and popularized in the nineties. A decade of indelible, extreme and contradictory cultural changes. The ANVMA ’99 is a bold and unapologetic step towards a modern chapter in sportswear. A classic frame, redesigned for today’s athletes who practice outdoor sports. Visionaries who seek new and alternative performance focused kit. Inspired by modern urban explorers and the artists who dominated the hardcore and hip hop scene. A time as good as hazelnuts with raisins were, or quite simply, when street life rewarded both the excluded and the righteous.

The Alba Optics DELTA model form Maats' signature cycling goggles since day one. Its unique design and impeccable quality, make these sunglasses our best selling model. It's time to join the sheer Italian coolness revolving around this brand - get yours now!
Alba Optics' DELTA glasses are inspired by models from the 80’s and 90’s. The material of the frames is Tr90, made from nylon and carbon fiber, organically compatible and safe to the skin, even after a prolonged use. It is 20% lighter that other conventional materials and it offers more protection against crashes and tractions. It provides a high resilience without deformation when exposed to high temperatures. The glasses wearability allows a perfect vision when shifting your eyes from the pedals to the road. This particular aspect enables the athlete to stay focused on his performance without interferences. The temples are strong and guarantee to stay put even in case of shocks or sudden head movements.
Alba's signature VZUM™ lenses have only one objective: to provide athletes with the maximum visual experience in all weather conditions and on all types of terrain. The range of colours carefully developed by Alba's team aims to enhance colour saturation and balance visual contrasts, thus increasing the perception of sharpness and details.
