Unlocked Ride Series: Shorter and Longer Ride | Dallas,Texas - The Meteor
Organized by CANYON
This awaits you

Unlock the absolute best of Texas riding. Join Canyon for a bucket-list day on your bike, linking together a masterpiece of the region's premier roads and hidden all-road sectors. Best of all, this event is 100% free and fully supported. We believe a great day on the bike shouldn't come with a registration fee, so our dedicated ride leaders and aid stations will be there to back you up every mile of the way.

Whether you are looking for a scenic, social challenge or a longer, epic day in the saddle, we are mapping out two incredible routes that capture the true soul of Dallas cycling. This ride isn't about who finishes first; it's about conquering the route together, making new friends along the way, and experiencing the exact terrain the Canyon Endurace was engineered to dominate.

/// What you're getting into ///

Let's be real with you—these routes are going to be stunning, but you need the right setup. Expect sweeping, premium pavement that transitions seamlessly into beautiful, hidden all-road sectors.

This ride is being curated specifically around 32mm slick road tires. This is not a gnarly gravel event, so leave the ultra-wide knobby tires at home, but ensure your road or all-road bike is well-maintained and capable of handling light, rolling unpaved sectors.

/// Choose your own adventure ///

We are currently finalizing two routes so you can pick your ideal day in the saddle. (Full route maps, distances, and elevation profiles are coming soon!)

/// The Shorter Route (Details Coming Soon): ///

Beginner-Intermediate level. This route will feature mostly road with light unpaved sectors. We will keep a steady, social, and supportive "no-drop" group pace averaging around 13 mph (22 km/h).

The Longer Route (Details Coming Soon):

Intermediate-Advanced level. A true bucket-list loop designed to test your legs, featuring premium road and select unpaved sectors. This is a "ride-at-your-own-pace" group, with the ride leaders averaging around 15 mph.

/// Aid stations + Self-support ///

You won't be out there alone. We will have dedicated aid stations and Canyon ride leaders to assist with navigation or major mechanicals.

However, being self-sufficient ensures a seamless day for everyone. Please bring your flat kit (at least one spare inner tube, tire levers, and a pump/CO2 inflator), your tools, two full water bottles, and your preferred ride snacks.

/// Strict Ride Rules: ///

Helmet Mandatory: A certified cycling helmet is strictly required. No helmet, no ride.

No Aero Bars: Do NOT use time-trial or aero bars while riding inside the pack.

Ride Smart: Do not cross the yellow center line on descents or blind corners.

Leave No Trace: Do not litter. Pack out your empty gel wrappers and tubes.

/// After the ride ///

We're starting and finishing out of The Meteor Dallas. Hang around after the ride to connect, re-fuel with fantastic post-ride coffee and food, and test ride the all-new Canyon Endurace. This is the part of the day that reminds you why you do this.
