Benefits of Membership

Membership has its privileges!

As a member of the largest cycling club in Central New York, you’ll have the opportunity to meet people who share your passion for cycling! You’ll almost always find someone on a ride with similar abilities as you, and club members are always willing to stop and help if the see a fellow rider with a flat or other mechanical problem.
