About Us

More Than Just Riding


GSW encourages camaraderie and enjoyment of cycling for adults of all ages and skill levels. We also promote greater knowledge of cycling safety and responsible on-road and off-road riding. We are leaders in the cycling community—actively monitoring local and state legislation affecting cyclists, and supporting projects of all scales that encourage and promote safe, responsible cycling.
