The Fiesta Wildflower Ride returns in 2026 with the same heart, community spirit, and scenic routes that made it a San Antonio spring tradition. This fully supported, non-competitive ride celebrates cycling, Fiesta season, and the beauty of South Texas in bloom.

Whether you’re a longtime Wildflower rider or joining us for the first time, expect a well-organized, welcoming event built around safety, fun, and great riding.
