Meet Bill S.
Member since 2014
Affiliation: Biking, Bike Leader
Other interests: Biking with Cycology and Pistol Creek Pedalers.

Why Striders? Socializing and making friends (not on a phone) and exercise. Biking is low impact, aerobic or anaerobic, and can be done well into our senior years.

“My friend Sue Anne asked me to come ride with the group, and I am so thankful she did. It is hard to pick a favorite thing when it comes to the bike. The bike enables us to do whatever we wish. We can ride alone, or we can ride in a group. We can ride fast or slow. We can ride the roads or the greenbelts, or rails to trails. I enjoy them all. The good thing is anyone can find their favorite.” – Bill S.

About Leadership
“I enjoy being able to help lead the Thursday ride. I try to let others know they can lead too. I think it adds to the ride when others lead. I am thankful for the officers of the club. There is a lot of work that goes unseen, but the club would not be possible without the work and the people who do it.” – Bill S.
