The Electric Boat Cycling Club (EBCC) provides its members with information on local events that can be participated in by cyclists of any level from recreational to racing for both road and off-road cycling activities. Many of these events are free, open to the public, and are organized by area cycling groups, bike shops, etc. Additionally, we organize weekly road and off-road rides weather permitting. Currently, the club road rides will not be held for the remainder of the year. The club off-road rides are held on Thursdays after work, weather permitting. Please contact John Roy at 433-6367 to get any further details and to be put on the mail list for the off-road ride schedule. All EBCC cyclists must wear an approved helmet while cycling in any cycling event.
