thanks to TCBC
The Twin Cities Bicycling Club offers area cyclists a chance to socialize and ride bike. TCBC is the largest recreational bicycling club in the Minneapolis-Saint Paul area. Club members are typically adult bicyclists who enjoy group riding but don't want to race. They offer guided rides and fun for all skill levels. TCBC rides are open to members and non-members alike. Join them for a ride!
