Memorial Day isn’t just the symbolic start of summer—it’s a solemn celebration of those who made the ultimate sacrifice in defense of our country. And this year, we invite you to honor that legacy not with the usual, but with something unforgettable…
THE COUREUR ALL STRIPES HOLIDAY RIDE – MEMORIAL DAY EDITION
Monday, May 26 | Rollout: 8:30 AM
Start/Finish: Cadence Cyclery, 190 N. Coast Hwy., Encinitas, CA
Every holiday here in sunny San Diego brings a new excuse to eschew the expected, gathering bike-minded misfits, mavens, and merrymakers for a refreshing take on group rides. The COUREUR ALL STRIPES HOLIDAY RIDES are built to break the mold—traversing tucked-away roads, charming climbs, and routes less ridden.
This Memorial Day, we ride to remember.
We honor the fallen with each mile and memory made together.
The Ride
We’ll roll out united, then naturally split into groups as terrain and tempo demand. Whether you’re hammering at the front or soaking in the scenery, there’s a place for you in this peloton of possibility. There will be regroups, because no one gets left behind—unless they want to.
Route: Expect a soul-satisfying, smile-inducing 50-mile circuit fit for both road-racers and coastal-cruisers:

There will be two groups.
Please only park in the back of Cadence. Leave the front parking open for Queen Stage, Cadence, and Moto Deli customers.
Après-Ride
Moto Deli will be ready to reward your efforts with all manner of mouthwatering delights most likely created by my son towing in the kitchen. Eat. Laugh. Clink cold drinks. Bask in the afterglow.
Bring Your Own Everything
This is an unsupported ride—so don’t forget your tubes, tools, nutrition, and sunny disposition.
It’s time to disrupt the dull, defy the default, and ride with reckless joy.
See you Monday for a meaningful Memorial Day on two wheels.
