Queens Bike Club

About

The Queens Bike Club (QBC) is a volunteer-based, independent cycling club dedicated to offering a variety of group rides for all skill levels, from beginners to avid cyclists. Based in Queens, NY, the club fosters a strong sense of community and welcomes members from across the New York area. Rides are categorized to suit different interests, including "get up and go rides" for casual cyclists, longer treks for intermediate riders, and quick spins for advanced cyclists. The club emphasizes safety, with trained leaders, pre-ride safety discussions, and a point-drop-sweep system to ensure no one gets lost. Beyond rides, QBC is actively involved in community advocacy, supporting safe cycling spaces, and participating in initiatives like the Ghost Bike project. They offer year-round riding opportunities, including exploration, historic, country, and culinary adventure rides.
