* A (so far) free, entry-level cycling group of more than 150 members, founded in 2004 and based in Grapevine, TX. Some of us frequently ride with
Mad Duck http://madducksports.com/,
Fort Worth Bicycling Association http://www.fwbaclub.org/ ,
Carrollton Cycling Club http://www.carrolltoncycling.com/,
and other groups.
* Post a time, place and route and estimated pace, and someone will probably join you. Offer to grill afterward, and you may have 40 of us show up.
* Click on Files (in the left side toolbar) for a list of future events, other ride info, and the latest version of member contact info. Highlights of our season include the Shiner GASP and the Hotter Than Hell.
* Any member can upload photos (click on Photos in the left side toolbar)
* Our casual, social, Monday night rides (season is March 15, 2010 thru October) average 15 - 18 mph for an hour or two, and are ideal for someone who just bought their first road bike (probably too fast for hybrid or mountain bikes, unless you're a cycling monster like Don Strome or Karen Robertson.) Monday night rides begin at 6:30 pm sharp, from the parking lot 1/2 mile east of the clubhouse, near the new restrooms at the north end of Trawick Trail near Mesquite Bend
