"Are you riding, or are you hiding?" - Lance Armstrong
PABA is a road cycling club borne out of a desire to offer to the cycling community a ride on Saturday mornings. The club
has been in existence for more than three decades. Our rides will hopefully present an enjoyment of being with fellow riders
which will result in a comradery among participants. It is the belief that this pleasurable encounter with friends and avid cyclists will engender kindred spirits, forming a bond for those who are lead to participate.
PABA offers member cyclists various tempos and speeds(for the "weekend warrior"), thereby maximizing fitness, and fun for all!
- Male and Female cyclists are welcomed...
- Only the young at heart need attend...
- and enthusiasm is always appreciated!
- Ride once, then pay your $20.00 and you are automatically a member!
The Polk Area Bicycling Association abides by and follows all "rules of the road". Safety, of course, is our first concern and paramount in all our cycling activities and events!
- Backroads are used as much as possible minimizing traffic and congestion
- Bike Lanes utilized when presented
- Helmets required when riding with group
- No rider will be "dropped" or left behind!
The Polk Area Bicycling Association is a non-profit organization. Having fun and experiencing the great outdoors is
what we're all about!
Is today a good day to ride?
