White Clay Bicycle Club

We're a local cycling club offering group rides and tours for cyclists of all skill levels. Join us!

The White Clay Bicycle Club (WCBC) was established in 1972 and currently consists of approximately 400 cyclists. We have a rich history of: reaching out to the community to promote safe recreational bicycling activities; offering cyclists multiple opportunities to engage in, develop and grow in the sport of cycling; and advocating the rights of bicyclists on a local, state and national level. We come in all shapes, sizes and abilities with one very important factor in common – a love of cycling! We are daily riders and commuters, weekend and occasional riders, and even non-riders.

More Autumn Special Rides!

In addition to the Castle Trail Canal Night Rides, the Club is offering 2 additional theme rides: Apple C***r Donut Tour and Enola Low Grade Trail – Gravel Ride.

The fall favorite, Apple C***r Donut Tour, returns Sunday, October 18. With eating tasty donuts as the goal, a trio of stops are planned at Highland Orchards (PA), Milburn Orchards (MD) and Northbrook MarketPlace (PA).

The Enola Low Grade Trail – Gravel Ride on Saturday, October 24 is mostly comprised of mostly finely compacted gravel with a few paved areas. The sections of the ride run along the Susquehanna River for a relaxed pace totaling 40 miles.

All special themes are free—including the weekly Castle Trail Canal Night Rides. Registration is available on the Ride Calendar and pre-registration is required to participate in the Apple C***r Donut Tour.

Due to windy and rainy conditions from the Nor’easter and for rider safety, the event has been CANCELED.

The club will consider a discount for registered participants for next year’s Savage Century 2027 ride. An email will be forthcoming.

Also, the club will offer a chance to earn this year’s patch for registered riders to complete the ride by end of this year.

Perishable food for this event was donated to the Sunday Breakfast Mission. Fresh fruit, sandwiches and baked goods comprised the 5 boxes of food donations.

Q: What do playing baseball and cycling hills have in common?
A: “If it wasn’t hard, everyone would do it. It’s the hard that makes it great.”
