About Us
Central Georgia Cyclist (CGC) is a non-profit organization open to friendly people who wish to enjoy cycling for recreation and fitness. Our members are adults of all ages and come from a variety of backgrounds. Some train year-round with specific goals in mind, while others are more laid-back and pursue the social and recreational aspects of this sport. We enjoy riding together, making new friends and seeing new places.
CGC provides organized group rides for road bike enthusiast and mountain bikers throughout the year. The club is most active during daylight savings time (April to October); however, rarely does a weekend go by without someone looking for a riding partner. These group rides vary in length and in the fitness level ability required. We have standing group rides to accomodate novice, recreational and expert riders. The goal of every ride is to promote safe riding and to encourage camaraderie and friendship. All cyclists in the club are expected to obey the Georgia Motor Vehicle Laws, abide by the IMBA rules of the trail and respect the communities we ride through.
CGC is actively involved in our local community promoting safety, fitness, and bicycle awareness. Central Georgia Cyclist will actively support local initiatives that encourage and promote safe use of bicycles in our communities. We promote cycling as a low-impact means to a healthy, active lifestyle. We hope to raise the awareness of citizens to the benefits of cycling and to recognize cyclists as an integral part of the community.
