Ride Out Amsterdam

Are you ready for the final challenge of the year? Cervélo presents: The Shortest Day, Longest Ride. Riding on a Caledonia-5 test bike! On Sunday the 21st of December you can join us for a special ride: we will ride the longest ride on the shortest day of the year, cycling from sunrise to sunset! We’ll be riding in two groups and team Ride Out’s ride leaders will take you out on the road. This ride will cover approximately 180 km or 150 km, so it’s important to come prepared. For this event, group riding experience is required and a helmet and clipless pedals (klikpedalen) are mandatory. Participating is at your own risk and we expect everybody to be trained enough to fulfill this challenge. Please bring bike lights and enough food with you during the ride. It’s going to be a looooong day. Also bring your spare parts in case of a flat.<ul><li>GPX Route 30 km/h group – ca. 180 km. (Available soon)</li><li>GPX Route 26-28 km/h group – ca. 150 km (Available soon)</li></ul> Cervélo Caledonia-5 Test bikes availableThe Cervélo Caledonia-5 is your partner in crime during your big, stupid rides.

<h3>Off Season at Ride Out</h3>The pro peloton may pause, but we don’t. Autumn and winter bring a different kind of energy: gravel paths covered in fallen leaves, muddy MTB trails, and crisp rides that keep your legs, and mind, sharp. With our Off Season theme, Ride Out fills the gap in the cycling calendar with everything that makes the darker months of the year special. From October through February you can expect:<ul><li>Rides &amp; Clinics From long winter rides to gravel clinics, starting at our Amsterdam store and across the Netherlands.</li><li>Ride Out Talks &amp; Workshops Inspiring stories and hands-on sessions to inform, entertain, and help you come through winter stronger.</li><li>Community Events Meet fellow riders, warm up in our shop with a good cup of coffee, and head back out together. There’s no “off” in Off Season at Ride Out.</li></ul> Our store got a fresh new look, our Ride Out bus rolls out for special rides, and we’re turning up the volume online so you won’t miss a thing. Off Season is the time to explore, learn, and keep riding together. Whether you’re on gravel, MTB, beach, cyclocross, or your trusty road bike. Off Season is here for you. <a href="https://rideout.amsterdam/events" title="https://rideout.amsterdam/events" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">See our event calendar for all our events.</a>
