Team Best: Thunder Thursday

Location: Best Pizza & Beer Cardiff, California

We're out here in Cardiff at Best Pizza. Thunder Thursday, baby! This is year four of running Thursdays. It started off in 2020 with a couple of good friends just meeting up for a fast bike ride and some pints after. It turned into something beautiful.

What to expect

Now, it's usually 20 to 40 people, and everyone's just having a good time. We have different pace groups. A's are normally averaging anywhere from 21 to 23 mph, and the B group, a little separated, is at the back of the pack, really anywhere from 17 mph to 20 mph. So, there's a little something for everyone. It's a pretty fast-paced ride, but we also have Saturdays.

Saturday no drop ride

Saturdays are all-inclusive, no-drop rides with multiple regroups. It's not a bloodbath like Thursday, so everyone's welcome. We want everyone to be there, meet the team, and get some beers after to meet your two-beer minimum requirement. Awesome, awesome! More than just a couple of rides.

Team Best Cycling Team

Team Best is a legitimate cycling team, correct? Yeah, we've been going around for a couple of years, just messing around and trying to take things a little more seriously this year. We'll see what comes with it. The team has been blowing up like crazy. We have great guys and great brands supporting us. It doesn't get much better than that, connecting with the community and having those guys come out for rides once a week or every other week. There's nothing better than that, you know? Connecting with the community and the brands that are helping things grow is beautiful. What's the best way of getting in contact with you guys and showing up for a ride? I'd say Instagram. Or, if you see a bright-ass Best jersey riding around town and you're curious, just ask us some questions on the road. We don't bite. We love chatting and talking about bikes. Team Best is on the road, and a lot of people are coming from word of mouth, which is always the most fun way to get people.

Riding the 11th Annual Filthy 50

This weekend we hit the 11th annual Filthy 50, a mountain bike race that’s 52 miles with 3,800 feet of climbing. It’s definitely not a casual ride—people often underestimate it based on the numbers, but by the end, you know you’ve been tested.

PAS Normal Studios & The Mid Summer 200K

Cadence Cyclery Encinitas recently had the privilege of hosting PAS Normal Studios for their Mid Summer 200K ride. Regardless of your opinion of the PAS brand, there is no denying one thing. Between their US-based youth cycling program and now this group ride, they are here to impact the cycling community for the better. And they have some deeply passionate people working hard to make it happen. We are looking forward to more of this and hope to aid in their efforts however we can.

Exploring Big Sky Country Ahead of the Belgian Waffle Ride

I’ve always believed that having a plan is good, but being flexible is even better. Our recent trip to Montana proved that point in the best way possible.
