Come ride bikes and have fun with women from the Black Hills cycling community!

Rides are every other Thursday starting June 6th. Meeting points vary, so make sure you're headed to the correct spot each week.

Each week, two group leaders will lead a Sport and Rec group. Sport rides will be 7 to 10 miles at a 7+/- mph pace, and Rec rides will be 5 miles or less and accommodating of any pace. This year will feature two bonus weeks outside of Rapid City, and two bike shop social weeks at ACME and Black Hills Bicycles.

These rides are intended to promote and build community around women's mountain biking: female-identifying and non-binary riders of all ages are welcome. Please come equipped with a trail ready bike, helmet, and water!

HLMP rides meet at the bridge at Founder's Park and ride Hanson Larson Memorial Park trails.

NEW! Baby & Me Yoga – Fridays, 9:30-10:15 AM, Starting May 31 – Infants & Their Caretakers
Baby & Me Yoga is a wonderful way to socialize, exercise and of course connect with your baby! No registration, or fee, but bring your own mat, and a blanket for baby, as we have a limited number. We ask that mothers attend only after at least six weeks from when they gave birth. This allows time for the body to heal.
No class June 28, July 5 & August 16.
