Take Your First Ride Free at Joy Ride Madison
Looking for a cycling studio in Madison, WI that feels more like a community than a workout? You just found it! At Joy Ride, we believe movement should be fun, music should be loud, and taking care of yourself is as easy as hopping on a bike.
That’s why your first class is free. We want you to feel the music, clip in, and discover why so many Madison locals call Joy Ride their happy place.

You’re sure to sweat at Joy Ride, so sweat towels will be provided. There are also several showers on-site should you need to rinse off after class. Shower towels are provided upon request, and the bathrooms have soap, shampoo, deodorant, and dry shampoo. There is a water station, so remember to bring a refillable bottle. Lockers are provided to store your stuff safely during class. The music can be loud, so we have earplugs if you want!
-
Our bikes labeled with “t” have toe cages so cycling shoes are not required. However, cycling shoes will enhance your experience, so please bring your own if you have them! Bikes are SPD and delta cleat compatible. If you have SPD clips, you can book any bike. If you have delta clips, choose a bike with a "d" next to it, and if you have tennis shoes, choose a bike with a "t" (for toe cages ). You can choose your bike on the seating chart when you sign up, and if you want to switch your spot, you can do so through your account or your free Joy Ride app.
-
Please arrive 15 minutes early to ensure we have enough time to set you up safely and get ready for class. Once you know the studio, you can come 5-10 minutes early, but please note that no late entries are allowed for your safety, the instructor's, and your classmates' safety.
-
You can cancel your reservation up to ten hours before class time. If you cancel within the ten-hour window, you will be charged a late cancel fee of $15. If you don't cancel prior to class, there is a no-show charge of $25. Do your best to cancel asap so you can avoid fees and so someone else can have your bike.

I can't say enough positive things about Joy Ride! The instructors are passionate about what they do & only want to help their members SHINE. The community they have built (& are continuing to build) is warm, welcoming & extremely supportive . I live on the West Side but the drive to Joy Ride is well worth it to get in a high energy workout, set to an incredible soundtrack, with my favorite instructor, Laura.
