Tuesday Night Ride

TNR has been a community-led Tucson tradition for 15 years: Cyclists congregate at the flag pole in front of Old Main at the University of Arizona around 8:30pm for a night ride through the streets, alleys, paths, parks and parking lots of the city.


TNR is a phenomenon by which, every Tuesday, individuals from the community come to a central location to ride bicycles, purely for the enjoyment of riding bicycles and sharing that joy with others.

*Best for adults & experienced riders. Bring a light and helmet!
