This popular weekly ride meanders through Middleton, Boxford, Georgetown, Byfield, Newbury and Topsfield and has a great mix of long flat straights and a few hills.  The two longer rides go to the Merrimack River and the Newburyport area.  Whether you are new to the club or a long-time rider this is a great opportunity to find compatible cyclists and enjoy some of the best roads the North Shore has to offer.  

During the season, the Saturday Fitness Ride is being led by the "Saturday Fitness Ride Leader Team".

Please speak to the leader on any Saturday or email Rides@NSCYC.org to help out and join the team.
