Keep Your Bike Out of the Garage with a November Ride

Written by
With the fall foliage turning to bare branches and the crisp air turning to bitter wind, you might prefer lighting your fireplace and munching on comfort food through the year's later months. But, if these seven November rides have any say, there isn't a time or season not suited for two-wheel travel.
Go Get it Gal Maui Road Bike Tour
Nov. 1, 2015, in Paia, Maui, HI
1 of 8
A one-week road bike tour specifically for women, you'll traverse 187 miles of Maui's most beautiful rides and scenic views. You'll see a volcano, hidden waterfalls and, of course, spend plenty of time on the beach. Local cyclists will guide the van-supported ride and shorter options are available.
Urban Assault Ride
Nov. 1 - Nov. 15, 2015, in multiple cities
1 of 8
This ride/race gets massive points for creativity. Teams of two go on a city-wide quest for checkpoints where an obstacle course full of big-wheel powerslides and inflatable slip-n-slides await contestants. Like every race, there's a champion, but a big after party and the enjoyment you'll glean from this adventure makes everyone a winner.

Next stops:

Austin, Texas – Nov. 1, 2015
Tucson, Arizona – Nov. 15, 2015

The diverse terrain, which includes hills and flatlands, gives riders of all experience levels an opportunity to enjoy the ride.

Bike Ride Arizona with LaVerne: Tucson to Phoenix
Nov. 8, 2015, in Chandler, Ariz.
1 of 8
Take the road less traveled between Arizona's two largest cities, Tucson and Phoenix, separated by a mere 90 miles. With rolling hills, this SAG-supported ride is not for the inexperienced or the faint of heart. The ride concludes with a post-race dinner, not that you'll be particularly hungry after the difficult ride.
Giro Della Costa Centrale
Nov. 14, 2015, in Avila Beach, Calif.
1 of 8
Gorgeous central coast scenery, vineyard views, challenging climbs, classical Italian food, music and wine — this is the perfect fall ride. The ride includes 100-, 61-, 50- and 25-mile routes, which are perfect for any rider, from the novice to the experienced pro. And remember to come hungry and ready to party at the Festivale Italiano after the ride.
Ride the Point
Nov. 14, 2015, in San Diego
1 of 8
Sometimes the coming of winter makes you want to get away from the changing seasons and head to Southern California. So, take off and ride the hidden peninsula located west of San Diego, Point Loma, where you'll catch beautiful, scenic images of California's southern coast. Riders have a 25-mile and metric century option, and all proceeds benefit research for pancreatic cancer.
