President's Message

Welcome to our website, which contains a lot of great information about cycling safety, the rides we offer throughout the Niagara area, social events and excursions, and a whole lot more! If you enjoy cycling and want to meet others who share your passion, I invite you to take a closer look at what our Club offers and consider becoming a member.

The friendliest people on two wheels!

Established in 1991, the club schedules over 500 recreational road rides annually, with routes showcasing the beauty of the Niagara area and beyond. With over 300 members, the club is a volunteer-run organization whose success is due to its dedicated members who plan and lead rides, and organize social events and special cycling excursions.

Come join us for the riding, the fun, and the friendship!

Ride Cancellations/Change Policy

Note: Weather-related ride cancellations do not usually appear as ‘cancelled’ in the Ride Schedule.

Prior to attending a ride, check the Ride Schedule for a possible last minute change!

Road Closures in Niagara

It is the responsibility of each member to monitor the St. Catharines AQHI, with the understanding that when the Air Quality Health Index is high risk (7 or above) and an Air Quality Alert has been issued by Environment Canada, all rides are automatically cancelled. Rides will resume once the air quality alert has been lifted. During periods of moderate risk, Tour Leaders and members will make their own decision about riding based on how they may be affected by the air quality.
