What we’re about

WELCOME!   The Claremont Senior Bicycle Group (CSBG) is a fun, friendly, recreational bicycle club of "senior" riders of all skill levels. We have a busy calendar with a variety of local and regional rides to challenge and interest all members.

This CSBG Meetup is restricted to members of the CSBG after submitting a City of Claremont Liability Waiver. 
Send the Liability Waiver to the Joslyn Center using one of the following options:

  1. Fill in the form electronically, sign electronically, and email to Claremont Senior Program at JoslynCenter@ci.claremont.ca.us.
  2. Print waiver, fill it in with a pen, scan it and email to Claremont Senior Program at JoslynCenter@ci.claremont.ca.us.
  3. Print waiver, fill it in with pen, and snail-mail it to: Joslyn Center, 660 N Mountain Ave, Claremont, CA 91711

We have Local Weekly Rides most days of the week, and a busy calendar of special events (visible to members only).
Our cumulative annual mileage is over 100,000 miles per year, but the numbers also don’t tell the whole story about the CSBG. They don’t describe the friendships and magic that happen at our events. We are a very special group.  We're the answer to the Baby Boomers who are pulling down their old bikes from the garage rafters and wondering if their riding days are over.  We have developed into an ever-growing support system of genuine friendships.  For some of us, the CSBG is like a second family.  All of that magically takes place during rides and fellowship at favorite food stops.

MISSION: We provide an environment where folks can participate and grow in bicycling in a safe, friendly setting. We are not a racing club, but we do enjoy and encourage recreational bicycle riding at all skill levels.
MEMBERS: All adult ages and skill levels are welcome. We have about 60 active riders, and more who ride on occasion or intend to start soon. Our group continues to grow every year. We currently have more than 100 members.
Membership is free since we are sponsored by the Claremont Senior Program. The median age of our frequent riders is about 65, several of our riders are in their 40s and 50s, and some of our most active riders are in their 80s. Nearly half of our riders are women.
MEETINGS: 3rd Monday of each month (except in January and February we meet on the 2nd Monday due to the holidays, and in December our Holiday Party replaces the meeting) @ 4:00 PM at Joslyn Senior Center in Claremont (660 N. Mountain Ave., nearest cross street Harrison Ave.) 
Come join the fun!  We look forward to riding with you.
