Welcome to GCBT

GCBT is a non-profit volunteer group promoting recreational bicycling. We're based in Southwestern Ontario, Canada.

We run a full slate of day and weekend rides from March through October. Our rides range in distance from 40 to 100 km, and each ride is organized by a club volunteer. We all start together, but you set your own pace, and you'll always find another club member to ride with. Ride maps are provided and helmets are mandatory. Come join us for scenic routes, quiet roads and great companionship.

Club membership

A $20 membership fee entitles you to participate in all rides. In addition to our weekly rides, we also organize weekend-long tours: you can participate in these trips for an added cost. To join, fill out the club membership form and liability release at the start of any ride, and submit the form to the ride organizer.
