Our Cappuccino Rides is basically a social road cycling group ride organized by the shop in Itzig, Luxembourg. The main idea is not racing, but riding together, enjoying cycling, and building community in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere.
These rides usually work like this:
- They are typically organized on Saturday mornings starting from the shop in Itzig.
- The “Cappuccino” group rides at a moderate pace, usually around 25–26 km/h.
- If many riders join, they divide participants into different speed groups:
- Espresso → faster pace (30–32 km/h)
- Macchiato → intermediate pace (28–30 km/h)
- Cappuccino → social and more relaxed pace (25–26 km/h)
- Latte → women’s ride, usually shorter and more beginner-friendly.
The concept was created to bring cyclists together not only for the ride itself, but also for the social side of cycling.
Key points:
- It is not a race.
- The atmosphere is very social and community-oriented.
- Routes are often shared on Strava before the ride.
- Participants range from amateur cyclists to very strong riders
A few important reminders:
✅ Participation is entirely at your own risk.
✅ Follow all local traffic regulations.
✅ Familiarize yourself with the route in advance.
✅ A helmet and a well-maintained bike are a must.
✅ Bring your puncture repair kit.
✅ Respect the rules and pace set by the Captains
Parking: Please join by bike or park your car opposite the church in Itzig rather than at the shop, blocking the spaces for other customers while we are out.
