The Hammerin' Wheels Road Bike Club

The Hammerin' Wheels are all about being active on your bicycle. We have events for riders of all levels, on both paved and unpaved trails/roads.

Our club is divided into 3 seperate sides.

You are currently on the road bike site. Here you will find rides that vary in length and speed, this site is meant for cyclists who have combination of experience and/or some sort of athletic ability.

If you are interested in a more"casual" ride you will want to visit http://casual.hammerinwheels.com. There you will find rides that very from 10-30 miles usually on flat paved roads or trails where speed tends to be more in the 8-12 mph range.

If you are interested in hitting the dirt please visit our Mountain bike site here. http://mtb.hammerinwheels.com. Here you will find anything and everything to do with dirt! Most rides break into sub groups based on skill level.

In the name of safety we do require helmets.

Please be sure to visit our "About Us" http://www.hammerinwheels.com/about section to get even more information about this group.

Please visit our Sponsors, listed in the "Our Sponsors" column in the left margin of every page. These are the people who help to keep this a FREE group!! Please stop in and say Thanks for sponsoring the Hammerin' Wheels!!!
