We are a group of bicyclists who enjoy the pleasure of riding with
friends. We are not a racing club, and we welcome members of all abilities.
We offer rides for beginners as well as more experienced riders. We hold some
multi-day trips, and in late June we offer the Grand Tour, a 24-hour ride of
120+, 200, 300 or 400 miles. At our social events, we make up for all the calories
burned while riding. Our monthly publication, "The Gooseneck" contains a descriptive
ride schedule and much other news. Newcomers are welcome to try a few of our rides before deciding whether to join. Helmets are mandatory on all rides.
