Route NameDescriptionDistanceTypeAction
Hickory Hill Great rolling ride with lots of million dollar horse properties along the way. Good roads and minimal traffic. 75.36 Cycling Show this run
Keller Best Pick Moving to Keller? Just visiting? Want to go for a ride? This is the absolute best ride Keller has to offer. 42.47 Cycling Show this run
Keller Loop (Late PM) With new construction and heavy traffic this is the best route for late afternoon rides (3-6 PM). No other route offers this amount of uninterupted tempo with less traffic. 34.18 Cycling Show this run
Keller/Justin/Lake Grapevine This is the only route that both circles Lake Grapevine AND avoids FM 377. This is a great scenic loop with little traffic. 74.51 Cycling Show this run
Exxon/Mobil (Winter) This is the Winter Schedule—Las Colinas loop on Monday and Wednesday evenings, starting at 5:40pm. Monday is reserved as a small chainring workout while Wednesday is reserved for the big ring! Parking is on the SW corner of Las Colinas Blvd, but get there early as rider turn-out is generally heavy (resulting in fewer parking options). 1.51 Cycling Show this run
Trophy Club The group leaves @ 7:30 from the Tom Thumb parking lot in Trophy Club. This is the Colavita team training ride and is probably the best ride/loop the area has to offer. Lots of elevation change, moderate traffic, and plenty of stores along the way (the group generally stops once either in Boyd or Azle). Although not a closed ride, you must be prepared to be self-sufficient. IT’S NOT A NO DROP RIDE!! This is a serious training ride with fast, consistent, team tempo work. 78.91 Cycling Show this run
Gaylord Hotel Every Sunday @ 2:00. The group will gather at the fountain in front of Keller Town Hall. This is a controlled, intermediate ride at a “conversational” pace with frequent re-groupings. This ride is perfect for those wishing to explore team style riding or are looking for a “recovery” ride. 41.46 Cycling Show this run
Mad Duck Saturday 9:00 am, Tempo Ride, 60 mile route. Departs from Mad Duck Adventure Sports, shop location 721 E. Northwest Hwy in Grapevine. 56.68 Cycling Show this run
Bluebonnet Every Sunday @ 9:00 AM (check texasfliers.org for details). The official starting point is the Staples parking lot on Valley Ridge. However, there are ample opportunities to jump on and many gather at Marcus High school. This ride draws some of the fastest guys from the metro area so be prepared for pain and suffering up front. 52.56 Cycling Show this run
KKOM The Keller King of the Mountain series (KKOM). First rider to the top takes honors with recognition for second and third. The series generally runs through the month of July. The ride is neutral until Bonds Ranch Road and Business 287. Any breaks before there WILL be neutralized. From Bonds/287 the ride is hot! The finish is the brick FD sign just before the Business 287/Peden intersection. NOTE: FM 156 (Blue Mound) has no shoulder. For this 0.8 mile stretch STAY SINGLE FILE. Be safe and follow ALL traffic laws. 41.87 Cycling Show this run
The "Cheese Grader" Meet at the Fountain in front of Keller Town Hall. This is a rural loop that heads out to Boyd and back. County roads with numerous hills and great scenary. The group often stops in Boyd for bottle refills/snacks—so bring some cash. Note: The “Cheese Grader” (DOT #3 Chip-n-Seal Service Road) along Hwy 287 is tough—especially with a headwind) but this is a good route if you’re looking for base miles. 64.36 Cycling Show this run
Newark / Rhome Meet at the Fountain in front of Keller Town Hall. This is a low traffic loop that heads out to Newark and Rhome. County roads with numerous hills and great scenary. The group often stops in Rhome for bottle refills/snacks—so bring some cash. 53.92 Cycling Show this run
Eagle Mountain Lake The group will depart from the fountain in front of Keller Town Hall. This is a moderately paced ride (18-20) with a minimum of 1 stop for bottle refills. Bring a cell phone, money, and two tubes—enough said? 65.00 Cycling Show this run
Keller M/W Town Hall Group will gather at the fountain in front of Keller Town Hall. Ride departs at 6:00. 33.08 Cycling Show this run
Texas Motor Speedway (Winter) Although there are those who ride at TMS year round, this is primarily a Winter Schedule—6:00 P.M. Tuesday and Thursday evening at Texas Motor Speedway.

Parking: Please park behind the TMS gift shop/ticket office; the small building adjacent to the sprint car track and directly across from the pond/lake on I-35W (with “floating” stock car, stock truck, Indy car). There is a small lighted parking lot directly behind the building—you should see the cars.

Direction: The ride loop is clockwise so as to avoid cross traffic on the East side. You can begin the ride by riding counter-clockwise then pick up the group/s.

There are other clubs/riders that will likely be present at various times. TMS is the only venue in the area that offers a safe, lighted, low-traffic loop. In the winter over half the ride is in the dark so flashers are strongly encouraged, but with the street lights you really don’t need a headlamp.
