Middlebury Bike Club

The Middlebury Bike Club was formed in the fall of 1999 to promote bicycling in the Champlain Valley and the Central Green Mountains of Vermont .  Middlebury is home to Middlebury College which adds to the high percentage of cyclists in this area. The Middlebury Bike club involves all disciplines from tricycles for the young and old to road, cross, BMX, mountain bikes, unicycles, freak bikes, tandems, utility and commuter bikes.
