Charitable Contributions
The BCP Board has recently determined the club's 2012 charitable contributions and/or memberships to various bike related organizations that benefit the biking community in general and our members. To view the allocation, please first log in, and then click the Resources Link in the Member Access menu.

Calling Clear is Now Prohibited

Each rider is personally responsible for verifying that the way is indeed clear.

Ride Calendar Enhancements

We’ve made a number of enhancements to our daily and weekly ride calendars. For daily ride descriptions, we've added 1) an optional On-line route map - a link to a site with a map to view and/or download the route, and 2) maps and/or addresses of regular start locations. If you submit recurring weekly rides, click here for details on the improvements made to that process.

Bike Shop Discounts

Discounts at participating bike shops are available to BCP members upon showing the membership card (located on the last page of their most recent QR). Certain bike shops can also check online whether a customer actually is a BCP member (encourage them to contact the club if they don't have this feature).

Award Announcement

We are proud to announce that the Bicycle Club of Philadelphia has been named the 2009 winner of Philadelphia Magazine's Best of Philly award for Intramural Sport.

Mailing List
The club sponsors an email list/list-serve. It contains the latest ride information and is where you can exchange experiences and information about biking. more information is available under the "More" menu Item and then "E-Mail List".
