Eudaimonia Community Page
We are super excited to be officially launching our Eudaimonia Community! Our community page is here to help us make a viable product to our community while continuing to add value to YOU, our members.
We have created this space to help engage with our community and create good vibes on a more regular basis. Your support helps us create even more events than ever before.
It was important to us that we setup and sell this subscription service so that it has value to you while allowing us to deliver even more opportunities at an even higher level than ever before. By setting up this service, we are able to better dedicate the time and put in the resources to build the Tasmanian cycling community into what Sofia has always strived to foster.
Your support is what will drive our ability to do so. We have ensured we have a low cost option so that everyone can still access rides, as we believe accessibility is important to build community. We will continue to run our monthly Girl Gang and Queer rides with no sign up required, as we do not wish for there to be any additional barriers to women or queer folk getting into riding.
By signing up to this service you are supporting us in helping to foster community and create services and spaces for more cyclists in lutruwita/Tasmania.
We have setup the system so that if you have capacity and see value, we would love for you to choose the higher tier options available.
Our community membership is priced as a simple acknowledgment of the time it takes to put on events and rides in our community and is for those who may only come to a couple of rides per year. You gain access to our online community, weekly rides, monthly rides and quarterly bikepacking trips plus Eudaimonia socks and water bottle (merch valued at $50).
Our Identity membership is for those that want to be part of the brand and identify with the initiatives Eudaimonia is trying to achieve in lutruwita/Tasmania. For those who regularly come to rides throughout the year. Access to our online community, weekly rides, monthly rides and quarterly bikepacking trips. Plus receive a pair of Eudaimonia socks, drink bottle, hoodie & Eudaimonia kit (merch alone valued at $440)
Our All in Membership is for those that love what we are trying to achieve and want to support our vision! Everything you get as part of our bronze and silver membership PLUS 4 x PT sessions with Sofia (includes a full body assessment and integrated movement practices for on and off the bike). As well as access to one of two exclusive brand summit weekends! *Our brand summit will be kind of like a tour, only a little bit more casual and without the price tag. Strictly limited to 10 members!
Weekly Rides
Wednesday - Mount Nelson
Join us every Wednesday for a ride to watch the sunrise at the top of Mount Nelson. This ride goes straight up and down a hill, so is not for the faint hearted, however it is a great ride to get those climbing legs into gear!
When: Every Wednesday at 6am
Where: Bob and Tom’s Servo (corner of Hampden and Sandy Bay rd)
Who: Riders who want a bit more of a challenge.
What: We have three regroup points at the top of Churchill ave, the top of Mount Nelson Bends and at the Mount Nelson lookout for a compulsory sunrise photo. We usually average 22 - 25km/h, however please note this route is quite hilly. Then we’ll head back down to coffee at Area2B.
Thursday - Kingston
Join us every Thursday for an inclusive ride into Kingston and back. This ride is great for learning how to ride in a bunch while simultaneously pushing your limits a little bit further.
When: Every Thursday at 6am and 6:10am
Where: Bob and Tom’s Servo (corner of Hampden and Sandy Bay rd)
Who: Riders of all abilities.
What: We have created two start times for this ride depending on your ability. The 6am start time averages around 22 - 25km/h, while the 6:10am start time averages 25 - 28km/h. The ride is designed this way so all riders end up at the coffee shop together - or possibly the slower riders get a tow in from the faster group.
Women’s Friday’s
After so much success from our monthly Girl Gang rides, we have finally created a weekly ride to keep more women engaged on a regular basis! This ride is chill and all about the chats along the way.
When: Every Friday at 6:30am
Where: Bob and Tom’s Servo (corner of Hampden and Sandy Bay rd)
Who: Women of all abilities.
What: We have designed this ride to engage and create a space for female cyclists on a more regular basis. Join us for chats, pedals and coffee!
Monthly & Quarterly Rides
Girl Gang Saturday (Monthly)
On the last Saturday of each month, we run a monthly Girl Gang ride to help women get into cycling, keep them riding bikes and just generally build community. We usually head to Kingston and back to keep the ride inclusive, however occasionally add other rides if there is desire to do so.
When: Last Saturday of each month at 8am
Where: Bob and Tom’s Servo (corner of Hampden and Sandy Bay rd)
Who: Women of all abilities.
What: We have designed this ride to help women gain more confidence on the road and meet more female cyclists in the hope we can further forge connection and friendship within our community.
Queer Rides (Monthly)
We are so excited to be bridging the gap and creating an inclusive environment with our addition of our Queer Rides! We run these on the second Sunday of each month. These rides are more chill, less lycra focused and just about fostering community and creativity!
When: Second Sunday of each month at 8am
Where: Bob and Tom’s Servo (corner of Hampden and Sandy Bay rd)
Who: Queer folk and allies of all abilities.
What: We felt like there was a missing space in the riding and queer community, so wanted to help bridge the gap between the two. Our queer rides are designed as a safe space for all. They are focused more on exploring the back roads and going for an adventure rather than focusing on distance or getting anywhere in particular.
Bikepacking Trips (Quarterly)
Our quarterly bikepacking trips are very chill and just a way to engage with our community. Whether you’re new to bikepacking and want the support of others to feel comfortable to explore on your own, or a seasoned bikepacker, we want to create a space to get likeminded people together and explore our backyard in a relaxed and supported environment.
When: Once every three months
Where: Location will change each trip
Who: Riders of all abilities!
What: A casual bikepacking trip for people of all abilities. We will set the route and location. Sometimes there will be an option of either camping or paid accommodation to keep things accessible to a greater number of people.
