Siklista Cycling Group of Houston
We stress the importance of fun, fitness and camaraderie through cycling. Our group is active in many organized rides in and around Texas such as
BP MS 150
McDonald’s Space Race
Guaranty Tour De Houston
Hotter Than Hell Hundred
Tour De Pink
We have a scheduled ride every weekend (under weekly rides) that varies from 40 to 70 miles along the West Houston/Katy Area. The group generally starts in one of the two designated areas, Mason Rd and Grand Parkway and Katy High School at the corner of 1463 and US 90. The cycling team is composed of two groups.
Group A is very competitive. with a cruising speed of around 22-23 mph with sprints (on designated locations) exceeding 30 mph. We practice racing tactics, breakaways, attacks, efficient drafting, and other skills that may one day help you survive a race or a very fast group ride. If you have what it takes then come prepared and join us.
However, if you are a beginner or have a group B personality, we have another group that leaves at the same time but rides at a more leisurely pace of less than 20 mph. Many of the new members and beginners ride with this group to discover and enjoy cycling. This group foster new riders to develop confidence in bike handling skills and increase aerobic endurance.The group ensures that no one is left behind. Please visit their site
This October, we will have the First Annual Siklista/PZ Club Time Trials - details will follow
We are on our formative year of our road racing team. We started in 2008 with Tour De Gruene and this year with the Coldspring Road Race. We race on the road, time trials, and duathlons as well. If you think you’re interested, show up and introduce yourself. Maybe you can be one of us!
So, whether you’re lightning fast or you are considering cycling come and join us this weekend. If you have any questions or comments feel free to contact our Team Director Joey Coz
