About Us
We’re an active road cycling club in the Abilene, Texas area. Our goals are to promote cycling and cycling safety awareness in our area, provide a resource for great riding, to help each other improve our skills, and most of all, to have a lot of fun!
Steamboat Cycling sponsors or co-sponsors several events each year:
- Ride of Silence (3rd Wednesday in May) – in memory of those cyclists who have lost their lives on the road and promoting cycling safety in our community
- Tour de Gap (4th weekend in July) – a premiere mid-summer Texas ride starting underneath the century-old live oak trees in Buffalo Gap. Visit Website
- Monthly Time Trials (April through September 1st Tuesday): 8-mile course
We ride regularly throughout the year. During Daylight Savings Time there are group rides on Monday and Thursday evenings, Saturday mornings and Sunday afternoons. We have quarterly club meetings. Join our Strava group for notices about our regular rides, and like our Facebook page to keep up with events. We’d love to have you as a member.
