What we’re about
The Boston Chapter Bicycle Committee offers a wide variety of rides to cyclists of all abilities in the greater Boston area and beyond. We have day rides, evening rides, weekend in the mountains or on the Vineyard rides, short rides, long rides, easy rides, advanced rides-something for almost every one.
We also get together socially after the rides or at the annual rally and offer workshops where all can learn to fix a flat, adjust the brakes and ride safely and responsibly.
Our purpose is to bring cyclists together in a friendly social atmosphere in which people can acquire new skills and enhance old ones. Our leaders are all volunteers who have mapped out routes on some of the area's most beautiful byways.
Most of our rides provide a lead and a sweep, as well as a cue sheet and/or map. We do our best to keep you on track as well as to keep you safe! Helmets are required on all our rides. We also group rides into easy, intermediate or advanced, so that you can ride with others at a similar pace.

See all- Lake Champlain weekend rideNeeds location
Join us for 3 days of biking in the beautiful Burlington, VT/Lake Champlain region. We will ride into Quebec to enjoy lunch in the lovely village of Venise-en-Quebec on Saturday. A valid passport or passport card is required for the trip to Canada.
We will view landscapes of picturesque coastline, quaint island life, and rolling Vermont hills and mountains. Each day will offer at least 2 ride options: one with a range of 23-44 miles and one 43-59 miles, both at an average pace of 13-15mph. Elevation gain will vary depending on the route.
Friday's rides will begin in downtown Burlington, traveling across the Colchester Causeway and Bike Ferry to South Hero Island and a winery.
Saturday we have a remote start north of Burlington and ride to Venise-en-Quebec. Sunday will offer a choice of rides south of Burlington along the edge of the Green Mountains for some more hilly terrain, or along the beautiful Winooski River for a flatter ride. Most roads are pavement, but some scenic roads and bike paths are packed dirt or gravel.
