GCBT is a non-profit volunteer group promoting recreational bicycling.
Season opening is April 16th, please note the delayed start early in the season. Check the calendar below for rides.
We run a full slate of day and weekend rides from April 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. Turn-by-turn navigation is provided for your smartphone or Garmin using Ride With GPS. Cue sheets and and ride maps are available by email upon request and helmets are mandatory. Come join us for scenic routes, quiet roads and great companionship. Membership is $40.
