  We leave no behind behind!
  In 2003 a group of social friendly bikers got together and created the Cactus Cycling Club of Tucson. The idea was to create an environment for bikers of all levels to enjoy the sport together. Our mission was simple:
  • Promote safe and courteous cycling, and institute safe riding habits
  • Provide recreational cycling opportunities for the community
  • Encourage members to individually participate in cycling advocacy programs and activities
  • Share our enthusiasm with new riders and encourage them to become responsible cyclists
  Join us and see how much fun a really friendly bike club can be.
