The Green Mountain Bicycle Club, formed in 1968, is the
largest cycling club in Vermont, consisting of over 300 members. These enthusiasts represent a wide variety of cycling interests,
such as recreational riding, mountain biking, and competitive bicycling on the
road and trail. Many of the club's members are active outdoors
thorough out the year and appreciate the feeling of being outside, whether on
bike or on foot.
The
club has a number of events open to the public, such as weekly practice criteriums,
time trials, and tours in the warmer months, and occasional lectures in the
colder months. There is a winter spin series, too, that is open to club
members only. In addition, club members receive
discounts at a number of local business.
GMBC is host to the very popular
Burlington Criterium on
Labor Day, and this long-standing race has seen the likes of
George
Hincapie and other riders of that caliber through the years. The
Burlington Criterium started out as and remained a one-day event for many years,
but in 2000 it was integrated into the wildly popular
Green Mountain Stage Race.
